Animal activities and welfare

Advice for using animal premises

We advise anyone using animal premises in Hart to:

  • check a business has a current animal activities licence, clearly displayed in a public area
  • visit the premises before leaving your pet or buying an animal
  • see puppies with their mothers (the breeder must either have a licence or an exemption letter from the Council stating why they do not require a breeder’s licence)
  • check that riding schools, and people exhibiting animals, have current public liability insurance
