On the 1 October 2018 a new statutory
instrument (2018 No.486) comes into force, namely The Animal
Welfare (Licensing of Activities Involving Animals) (England)
Regulations 2018. This new legislation introduces an updated
licensing system in England for five activities involving animals:
selling animals as pets, providing for or arranging for the
provision of boarding for cats or dogs, hiring out horses, dog
breeding and keeping or training animals for exhibition. The
introduction of the legislation has highlighted the need to include
“home boarding” and “day-care” in our
licensing schemes.
