How to Get License for Breeding Dogs in London

Likewise all other places London is also well known for keeping dogs as pets but besides that it is also being used for the source of entertainment, owners have started breeding dogs for the purpose of greyhound racing. For the sake of the security of this friendly creature, who though are being used to entertain humans still their life is on the stake because some illiterate breeders train their dogs in a very bad manner that they end up losing their lives. The government of British announced a law that if any owner has a bitch and she gives birth to 5 or more litters during the period of 12 months they have to apply for a dog breeding license. Even if a person owns a pet shop this law is applicable for him as well. By acquiring a license the breeders will get registered and the vets and the inspection team will be given the permission to visit the breeder and see how the dogs and the bitches are being treated.
