star this property answer text <p>In reviewing the licensing systems for dog breeding, pet sales and other animal activities in England we considered extending the licensing requirement to animal sanctuaries and re-homing centres. We were not provided with evidence that such operations need to be regulated in the same way. We support the work of the Association of Dogs and Cats Homes who have developed sector guidance for dog and cat rescue and rehoming centres which we endorse.</p><p> </p> more like this
