- There were dig barriers in the exercise yard for the dogs. There were numerous areas of this dig barrier fence that had been dug up and were sticking up above the ground. - The shade shelter in the exercise yard had two, two by four boards with sharp points. These points were the tips of screws sticking downward at the point where the animals access the shelter. - The dividers for the outside pens were composed of aluminum rods. The gaps between the rods were approximately 3-4 inches. To prevent small dogs and puppies from squeezing between the rods, the licensee lined the rods with a one-inch by one-inch welded wire fence. This additional fencing was rusted. Primary enclosures must be constructed and maintained so that they protect the animals from injury. Surfaces in contact with dogs must be able to be readily sanitize or removed or replaced when worn or soiled to reduce odor, pests, and the possibility of disease transmission. Primary enclosures must be constructed and maintained in good repair and without rust. To be corrected by September 22, 2023
