**There are wood enclosure posts and supports that are constructed of wood that are chewed, cracked and splintered in places. These surfaces can not be readily cleaned and sanitized. **The licensee is housing some dams and their puppies in the house with the pet dogs at the time of the inspection. The wood floor of the room housing all of the dogs is soiled with grime and excreta and does not appear to be able to be readily cleaned and sanitized. Inability to house dogs in housing facilities that are clean and able to be sanitized can contribute to disease transmission. The licensee must ensure that surfaces of housing facilities must be constructed in a manner and made of materials that allow them to be readily cleaned and sanitized, or removed or replaced when worn or soiled.
