37782 f4642c486cf5d421 3.15(e)   0 Primary enclosures used to transport live dogs and cats. Five adult dogs are contained in three transport crates waiting to be moved to another location. Two plastic crates each contain two dogs and the amount of space is insufficient to allow the dogs to turn around and lie in normal positions. The inspectors observed one dog turning around in an abnormal position due to the lack of space. The dog was required to lower his hind end towards the floor in order to bend his front end around to complete the turn in the tight quarters. Failure to provide adequate space during transport may have a negative impact on the animal's health and well-being. Primary enclosures used to transport live dogs and cats must be large enough to ensure that each animal contained in the primary enclosure has enough space to turn about normally while standing, to stand and sit erect, and to lie in a natural position. The licensee must ensure that transport enclosures provide the required amount of space for each dog in order to support their health and well-being. To be corrected by: The facility representative returned the dogs to their primary housing enclosures or separated the dogs into compliant transport enclosures at the time of the inspection.
