Animal Care Licensing

Animal Care Licensing is a regulatory process that ensures individuals and facilities breeding, selling, or caring for animals meet specific standards of health, safety, and ethical treatment. It involves obtaining official approval from authorities, which includes adhering to rules on proper housing, nutrition, veterinary care, and record-keeping. This licensing helps prevent abuse, promotes responsible practices, and ensures animals are treated humanely throughout their lives. It also allows oversight to ensure compliance, providing accountability for those involved in animal care activities.
