Enrichment

Under breeding licence guidance, inspectors expect to see a written enrichment and enhancement programme that clearly demonstrates how dogs are enabled to express normal behaviour patterns. This includes structured human interaction, exercise, varied environments, and appropriate stimulation and all documented, reviewed, and actually implemented in practice.

Planning for a renewal

They may have been breeding successfully for many years but are now finding themselves under increased scrutiny because the documentation doesn't accurately reflect the high standards they already work to. In some cases, licences are delayed, downgraded or even revoked because there is no evidence to support the excellent care being provided.
