Existing Animal Licences and their gradings

Under The Animal Welfare (Licensing of Activities Involving Animals) (England) Regulations 2018, animal boarding businesses (including home boarders and day carers), dog breeders, pet shops and riding establishments are covered under a single type of licence. 

Anyone partaking in these activities will require a licence. It is known as an 'animal activity licence', with nationally set licence conditions for businesses providing animal-related services.

The following have been issued licences in this regard;
