 does anyone know if you need a permit to breed dogs in UK?
Legal requirements for becoming a breeder in UK and the kennel Club(KC), is it necessary?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Having just been blessed with triplet puppies, my husband and myself are so
enjoying the experience, we think we would like to breed on a regular basis. I'm not talking about a puppy factory here! But maybe one or two litters a year. Does anyone know if there are any legal requirements for such a venture, or any council bylaws? We live in Cornwall.
Also, the proud parent Yorkies came to us from a very reputable breeder in Exeter and both have good pedigrees, (Lilys grandmother was a Crufts champion)!
With the triplets, they obviously deserve a pedigree having such well bred parents, but I don't know how to go about it. Are there forms you can buy and if so, do I have to give our own bred Yorkies, currently known as Daisy, Maisie and Dodi, a posher more fancy name, for the Pedigree?
Also what is the position re the kennel club?, when we bought our first Yorkie I asked if he was kennel club registered and the breeder said, no, but she would do it if we wanted. She said it was really only necessary if we were planning to show, which we are not, so I didn't bother, but am now wondering if I should have? some advice please as I have no idea exactly what the kennel club is/does!
