* The automatic watering receptacle in the old pig pen kennel (north kennel) has an accumulation of green algae in the water. There is an excessive accumulation of green algae inside two plastic water bowls in the main kennel. The algae and green slime indicate the watering receptacles are not being cleaned and sanitized often enough. This can cause disease hazards for the six adult dogs housed in the all the mentioned enclosures. Watering receptacles must be cleaned and sanitized more often to prevent an accumulation of dirt, debris and slime. More required cleaning and sanitization of watering receptacles will reduce disease hazards for the dogs. This inspection and exit interview was conducted with the facility representative. This inspection will be sent both regular and certified mail. Additional Inspectors Thornton Karl, Animal Care Inspector
