Yep, thats right. Anyone can handle a DWA, there is nothing stopping a petshop worker dealing with 100's of DWAL if he doesn't hold a DWAL. The DWAL is on the building the animal is kept, and is held under the name of the person who owns/rents the building.
They do have to have public liabillity insurance of at least a million pound, but I think it will be higher for a petshop (not 100% sure on that). It is upto the DWAL holder to ensure that all the people/staff who deal with the DWA's is experienced enough to deal with the animals.
Me personally, I don't usually let ANYONE go near my hots. The only time I do, is I am 100% sure they are as adequate as myself.
