New legislation and Code of Practice for Sellers or Suppliers of Pet Animals
Anne Fitzpatrick2020-01-20T14:30:52+00:00The legislation requires any person who sells or supplies more than 5 pet animals in a calendar year to register with DAFM. It also requires sellers or suppliers of pet animals (including Dog Breeding Establishments registered with local authorities) to include their registration number on any advertisement (including on-line advertisements), the age of the animal, the country of origin of the animal and, in the case of dogs, to provide the unique microchip number.
