These Regulations make provision for the licensing of dog breeding establishments. Part I of the Regulations designates the breeding of dogs for the purposes of section 12(1) of the Welfare of Animals Act (Northern Ireland) 2011 (c.16) (“the Act”). The consequence of this designation is that, subject to qualifying criteria and some exceptions, any person wishing to breed dogs shall obtain a licence from the district council in which the establishment is located.
