Under the Animal Welfare Act 2006, anyone adopting or taking ownership of a pet must be at least 16 years old. Because of this legal requirement, Woodgreen is unable to place animals with anyone aged 16 or under. This helps ensure that every pet goes to a home where an adult can take responsibility for their ongoing care and wellbeing.*
