USDA APHID inspection requirements for professional dog breeders:
 
For nearly 50 years, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has enforced the Animal Welfare Act (AWA) to protect certain animals from inhumane treatment and neglect.  Congress passed the AWA in 1966 and strengthened the law through amendments in 1970, 1976, 1985, 1990, 2002, 2007, and 2008.  The USDA’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) administers the AWA, its standards, and its regulations.
 
The AWA requires that basic standards of care and treatment be provided for certain animals bred and sold for use as pets, used in biomedical research, transported commercially, or exhibited to the public.  Individuals who operate facilities in these categories must provide their animals with adequate care and treatment in the areas of housing, handling, sanitation, nutrition, water, veterinary care, and protection from extreme weather and temperatures.  Although Federal requirements establish basic standards, regulated businesses are encouraged to exceed these standards.
 
The AWA regulates the care and treatment of warm-blooded animals, except those (such as farm animals) that are used for food, fiber, or other agricultural purposes.  Currently, coldblooded animals, such as snakes and alligators, are exempt from coverage under the Act.  Animal shelters and pounds are regulated if they sell dogs or cats to dealers or research facilities.  Pets owned by private citizens are not regulated.
 
The AWA regulates the care and treatment of warmblooded animals, except those (such as farm animals) that are used for food, fiber, or other agricultural purposes.  Currently, coldblooded animals, such as snakes and alligators, are exempt from coverage under the Act.  Animal shelters and pounds are regulated if they sell dogs or cats to dealers or research facilities.  Pets owned by private citizens are not regulated.
 
The AWA requires that all individuals or businesses dealing with animals covered under the law must be licensed or registered with APHIS.
Regulated research facilities include hospitals, colleges and universities, diagnostic laboratories, and many private firms in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries.  In addition to providing basic standards of veterinary care and animal husbandry, regulated research facilities must provide dogs with the opportunity for exercise and promote  the psychological well-being of nonhuman primates used in laboratories.  Researchers must use methods to avoid or minimize discomfort, distress, and pain to the regulated animals unless withholding such methods is scientifically  justified.  The AWA also forbids the unnecessary duplication of previous experiments using regulated animals. 
 
Research facilities must establish an Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee to oversee the use of animals in experiments.  This committee is responsible for ensuring that the facility remains in compliance with the AWA and for providing documentation of all areas of compliance to APHIS.  The committee must be composed of at least three members, including one veterinarian and one person who is not affiliated with the facility in any way
 
Attending veterinarians play a crucial role in ensuring the humane treatment of animals under the Animal Welfare Act.  Dealers, exhibitors, and research facilities employ attending veterinarians to provide adequate veterinary care to their animals and to oversee other aspects of animal care and use.  In this role, veterinarians have the opportunity to expand their practice, provide veterinary care to a large number of diverse kinds of animals, and work alongside their clients and Animal Care to ensure the humane treatment of more than two million regulated animals.
 
The Animal Welfare Act (AWA) was passed to assure that humane care is provided to animals sold as pets or used in research, experimentation, or exhibition. As an attending veterinarian working with the licensee or registrant of a facility regulated by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), you will play a crucial role in ensuring the provision of adequate veterinary care and overseeing the adequacy of other aspects of animal care and use.
 
This module explains the role of the part-time attending veterinarian, their relationship with a USDA-regulated facility and USDA inspectors, and general knowledge of the Animal Welfare Act. Full-time attending veterinarians for USDA-regulated facilities will also find this presentation helpful.
 
After completing this module, you will:
  • Know some of the benefits of becoming an attending veterinarian
  • Understand the Animal Welfare Act and Animal Welfare regulations for facilities with a part-time attending veterinarian
  • Be able to explain the regulatory requirements of licensees and registrants to provide veterinary care
  • Be able to explain the role of the part-time attending veterinarian

What is Patellar Luxation?
 
The patella, or kneecap, is part of the stifle joint (knee). In patellar luxation, the kneecap luxates, or pops out of place, either in a medial or lateral position.

Bilateral involvement is most common, but unilateral is not uncommon. Animals can be affected by the time they are eight weeks of age. The most notable finding is a knock-knee (genu valgum) stance. The patella is usually reducible, and laxity of the medial collateral ligament may be evident. The medial retinacular tissues of the stifle joint are often thickened, and the foot can be seen to twist laterally as weight is placed on the limb.

Patellar luxations fall into several categories:
1.     Medial luxation (toy, miniature, and large breeds)
2.     Lateral luxation (toy and miniature breeds)
3.     Lateral luxation (large and giant breeds)
4.     Luxation resulting from trauma (various breeds, of no importance to the certification process)
 
Numbers 1-3 are either known to be heritable or strongly suspected.
 
Medial Luxation in Toy, Miniature, and Large Breeds
 
Although the luxation may not be present at birth, the anatomical deformities that cause these luxations are present at that time and are responsible for subsequent recurrent patellar luxation. Patellar luxation should be considered an inherited disease.
