Licensing is considered to be an integral part of responsible dog ownership. The owner of an unlicensed dog may be issued with a £80 fixed penalty notice or prosecuted in court. The payment of a fixed penalty notice discharges any liability to conviction for that offence.
In court, the maximum penalty on conviction for keeping or taking possession of a dog without a licence is £1000. Anyone selling or giving another person a dog without ensuring that the other person has a licence also commits an offence (maximum penalty fine £1000).
