ACCREDITATION... GOT TO GET IT OFF THE DOCKET--
I WRITE-- LINDA TYPES- ANN CHECKS-- I THNK IT IS BASICALLY ALL DONE.. BUT WHERE???? AND IT WAS WEEKS AGIO I WROTE TEH STUFF AND BY NOW FORGOT THE NAMES OF IT ALL-
- SO I MUST HAVE AT IT... JUST AFTER I FIGURE OUT WHY I MUST SPAY AND NEUTER OUR BREEDING STOCK-
I KNOW... ADI HAS WON WONDERFUL BATTLES-- PUBLIC ACCESS ETC- BUT I RESENT HAVING TO WRITE- AND DOCUMENT HOW WHY AND WHEN WE CHANGE TEH WATER IN EACH KENNEL.
OR FEEDING-- OUR DOGS LOOK WONDERFUL- SO WE MUST BE FEEDING CORRECTLY-- MY RULE IS-- IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT TO FEED ANY DOG, GIVE THEM A VOLUME OF FOOD 1/2 THE SIZE OF THEIR HEAD. ADI DOESN'T LIKE THAT SORT OF THING..
FIRE DRILLS-- IF THE BUILDING IS ON FIRE- GET OUT-- THE DOGS ALL HAVE A DOOR TO THE OUTSIDE-- i don't know who they wrote these "instructions" for... it sure was not our farm. details instructions about"must be temperament tested???" we live with them... we know teh dogs... not only we--- but teh 1000 people who watch them daily-- and let us know who is a bully or is limping-- if these pups can survive the rough and tumpble of running up and down puppy hill, all we have to do is watch-- if anything is wrong it is gonna show... then we can do some test or another--- to test every animal for every ailment would put us out of business very quickly..
example-- if you have a perfectly normal looking puppy, there is no point in testing for worms-- they all have them- teh medicine for that is cheap and easy( steven with the new jr pup...-you gotta worm him...)
this adi bit says things like "we need to see documentation of health exams" well ... you will see them if our screening of tehm turned up sometihg odd.--
this whole accreditaTION PROCESS IS NOT GOING TO BE EASY-- BUT I BETTER GET AT IT.
MY PROBLEM IS ( AMONG MANY) WHEN YOU WANT TO ASSESS A DOG OPERATION, FIRST LOOK AT THE ANIMAL-- LOOKS GOOD-- ACTS FINE--MEANS THERE IS A VERY LOT THAT CAN BE IGNORED -- HOWEVER THIS ADI PAPERWORK STARTS WITH NEEDING TO DOCUMENT HOW WE FEED THE DOGS.
I HAD THAT EXACT PROBLEM WITH TEH DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE-- THEY CAME TO INSPECT ME BECAUSE I WAS USING ANIMALS IN MOVIES/COMMERCIALS.-- THEY WERE HERE 3 HOURS AND STUCK ON THE FACT THAT EACH ANIMAL HAD TO HAVE A NUMBER-- ( NOT A NAME)- AND AT THAT POINT THEY HAD NOT EVEN LOOKED AT ANY ANIMAL THEY WANTED ME TO NUMBER.
"THEY" WAS A WOMAN- WHO I EVENTUALLY CALLED SOME NAME THAT WOULD MAKE A SAILOR BLUSH- AND THE NEXT DOWN MY DRIVEWAY WAS A USDA VETERNARIAN WHO EXPLAINED THEY COULD FORCE ME TO VACUUM THE DUST OFF THE CHICKEN'S WINDOW LEDGE. I THINK THAT WAS ABOUT THE TIME I JUST PLAIN QUIT. HE EVENTUALLY GAVE ME THE CERIFICATION NUMBER WHICH IS OVER THE DOOR OF THE TEE TENT- BUT BY THEN I WAS OUT OF IT. AND INTO SERVICE DOGS.
YOU ALL KNOW--- I LOOK AT THE MANURE PILE- AND I CAN TELL YOU HOW THE STALL IS DONE. WAS MUCKED.
LOOK AT TEH RESULTS BEFORE YOU PICK OVER THE DETAILS. I AM VERY PROUD OF OUR KENNELS-- AND TEH DOGS OUR TRAINERS PRODUCE-- I AM THRILLED TO COPY ANY KENNEL RUNNING BETTER THAN OURS... HOWEVER.......
IS IT MISSOURI PEOPLE THAT SAY "SHOW ME"? OR WAS THAT TRUMAN??
