No violations recorded (clean inspection).

2.50(a)(1) (Non-Critical) – Time and method of identification.
There are 26 adult dogs which do not have a form of identification on their bodies. All dogs and cats must have identification in an acceptable form and placement as described in Part 2, Subpart E in order to facilitate tracing of all animals and their humane use. The licensee must ensure that all live dogs and cats held on the premises, purchased or otherwise acquired, sold or otherwise disposed of, or removed from the premises for delivery to a research facility, exhibitor or another dealer, or for sale, through an auction sale or to any person for use as a pet, shall be identified by an official tag of the type described in Part 2, Subpart E, Section 2.51 affixed to the animal’s collar around the neck; microchips and distinctive, legible tattoo markings (if acknowledged and approved by the Administrator) are also acceptable means of identification.

3.13(a)(2) (Non-Critical) – Veterinary care for dogs.
None of the 26 adult dogs on premises have received a head-to-tail veterinary exam since 04/10/2024. Annual veterinary exams are important to evaluate the health of all breeding stock and to detect diseases or conditions that may impact the health and well-being of animals. An annual veterinary exam for all adult dogs within a licensed facility is required and should include a record of exam findings dated and signed by your veterinarian. TO BE CORRECTED BY 06/28/2026

3.13(b) (Non-Critical) – Veterinary care for dogs.
The licensee has invoices but not the veterinary medical records for any of the dogs. Veterinary records contain information that is vital for knowing the current health status and preventive veterinary care for each dog and for detailing the care of animals that have new or pre-existing injuries or illnesses. It is important to have the veterinary record on hand and up to date, to ensure that caregivers know exactly how and when to provide follow-up care to animals, including details for preventive and post-procedural care, drug administration and any other instructions and follow up visits. This written information is very important to ensure that all care provided to the animal is done according to the veterinarian’s orders to help prevent unnecessary discomfort or harm to the animal and help ensure the best outcome. The licensee must keep updated copies of veterinary records for dogs and make these available for APHIS inspection; the records must include all of the information detailed in Part 3, Subpart A, Section 3.13(b)(1-4).
