Change your dog's ownership details

What you need to let us know

You need to let us know if you:

  • currently own a registered dog and you plan to give it away or sell it
  • are taking over the ownership of a registered dog.

The existing owner and new owner have to sign the form.

It will take 5-10 working days to process the changes.
