DEFRA Animal Licensing Review: Next Steps Report
Click to view this report

Following a consultation process, Defra published its Report outlining the Next Steps in the Review of Animal Establishments Licensing. The intentions are to create new Model License Conditions for Dog Breeding which will become law. No puppies may be sold under eight weeks; the statutory licensing threshold will be three or more litters; each breeding bitch should have no more than one litter a year; there will be a requirement for licensed breeders to display their local authority licence number when advertising; local authorities will be required to use a risk-based system, including a consideration of an affiliation to a body accredited by UKAS, such as the Kennel Club Assured Breeders Scheme (ABS).
