Exempt Dog Breeds
This transition period may be a difficult and stressful time for owners of the newly banned breed and types having to comply with new regulations set by the government and insurance companies.
Many pet business providers are working hard to ensure that these owners with their pets can still have access to their secure free-running spaces, training and grooming facilities.
Honesty and integrity are paramount for this to work, enabling all sectors to continue to offer services for these dogs from 31st December 2023
