While having a pet such as a dog does not require a licence, some animals may require a licence, this may include some types of exotic wild animals as well as domestic-wild hybrid animals.
If you are running a business involving animals such as a riding stable or pet shop you will require either a Horse Riding Establishment Licence or an Animal Activities Licence.
If you run a business that breeds and sells dogs, you will need a Dog Breeding Licence.
While having a licence for most types of common domestic pets is not required, providing proper care for a pet or animal that you own is a mandatory requirement. Those found mistreating animals in their care may get an unlimited fine or be sent to prison for up to 6 months if an animal is not looked after properly.
While a licence for a pet dog or cat and most common domestic pets is not required, you will need a licence to keep some animals considered to be wild, dangerous or exotic. These types of animals may include wild cats, primates, wolves, wild boar and certain types of pigs.
A full list of these types of animals can be found in The Dangerous Wild Animals Act 1976.
If you are unsure whether or not you require a licence for a pet or animal in your care you should contact your local council. You can find the contact details for your local council at the Official UK Government Website.
No, you don’t need a licence for most common domestic pets.
Some of the types of animals that you may need a licence may include wild cats, primates, wolves, wild boars and certain types of pigs. You should check with your local authority to confirm whether or not you will need a licence for these types of animals.
