Friendly Reminder - Dog Registrations for 2024/25 are Now Overdue

Registering and microchipping your animals is an essential part of responsible pet ownership.  It is important to register your pet so if they are lost or stray, they can be returned home safely.

Council will now be auditing the registration system to identify those who have not complied with the requirements of the Animal Management (Cats and Dogs) Act 2008. Failing to comply may result in enforcement action being taken which may include Infringement Notices being issued.

If you have not paid your dog registration, please contact Council to make payment or update any details, including change of ownership, moved out of the area or if your dog has sadly passed away.

Please note under the Animal Management (Cats and Dogs) Act 2008 Section 54 it is the animal owner’s responsibility to notify Council within 7 days of any changed information. Penalties apply for failing to update details. Council would prefer your cooperation to resolve this matter in complying with the Act to avoid enforcement action being taken.

Council’s compliance team would like to thank everyone who has updated their details and paid their registration.

Should you require any further information or assistance, please contact Council’s Compliance Team on 4189 9100 or email info@sbrc.qld.gov.au.
