Roedd y Rheoliadau drafft a'r ddogfen ymgynghori eu hunain yn gynnyrch llawer iawn o waith ar draws nifer o grwpiau. Sefydlais grŵp gorchwyl a gorffen ar fridio cŵn gyda chynrychiolwyr o'r proffesiwn milfeddygol, awdurdodau lleol, sefydliadau lles a'r Kennel Club. Eu hargymhellion oedd sail y ddogfen ymgynghori a'r Rheoliadau drafft. Hefyd, ariannodd y cynllun gwella lles anifeiliaid anwes ddau brosiect a nododd fylchau yn y broses ddeddfwriaethol a'r gyfundrefn drwyddedu.
The draft Regulations and consultation document were themselves the product of a considerable amount of work across a number of groups. I established a Task and Finish Group on dog breeding with representatives from the veterinary profession, local authorities, welfare organisations and the Kennel Club. Their recommendations formed the basis of the consultation document and draft Regulations. The Companion Animal Welfare Enhancement Scheme also funded two projects which identified gaps in the legislative process and licensing regime.
