Ms Teresa Gavaghan:

Yes. The guidelines state, at section 9:

A Dog Breeding Establishment operator must establish and maintain a detailed records keeping system to record the details of births, deaths, sale, movement (and reason for movement) or other events relating to all dogs and pups kept within the establishment. These records must include all microchip details, age, sex, breed, dates of whelping of each bitch, number and sex of pups in each litter (including the number of live and dead pups), and details of sale or disposal. Each pup must have its dam and sire’s microchip number listed in its records. The premises must also have a separate record of all bitches, over 6 months of age and capable of being used for breeding purposes. All such records must be maintained for five years and made available for inspection on request by an authorised person.
