Tangle Tails
Tangle Tails is licensed by Northumberland County Council for dog home boarding. The council's most recent inspection awarded it 5 stars out of 5.
Its licence runs to 21 December 2028. Longer licence terms are awarded to higher-rated operators, which is why a distant expiry date is usually a good sign in itself.
We found no entry for this business on the ICO register of fee payers. That is common for sole traders and is not necessarily a failing, but a business holding your address and door key would normally be expected to be registered.
Under the star rating scheme a 5-star operator qualifies for a licence of up to 3 years and correspondingly fewer unannounced inspections, so the rating affects how often the council will look in as well as what it thought at the last visit.
Northumberland County Council does not publish an address for this licence. That is standard for businesses operating from a residential address and does not indicate anything about the business — contact details are usually on its own website or through the council.
We have not been able to identify a website for Tangle Tails. Many licensed operators of this size trade through word of mouth, a marketplace profile, or a social media page rather than a site of their own.
We last read Northumberland County Council's register 4 months ago, so treat the expiry date in particular as indicative rather than current.

This page reproduces factual entries from public registers. It is not a review, a recommendation, or an endorsement, and we have no commercial relationship with the businesses listed. Council star ratings are the licensing authority's assessment of risk and compliance, not a measure of service quality.

Factual fields extracted from each council's published public register: trading name, licence number, licensable activity, star rating and expiry date. Where a council redacts an address — as they routinely do for home boarders operating from a residential address — the record is kept without a location and never geolocated by inference.
