Dog registration
All dogs over the age of 12 weeks must be registered with Council.
- Registration provides identification, which means lost dogs can be reunited with their owners.
- Dog identification will be vital in the event of a disease outbreak.
- Information on registration provides statistics to help Council provide appropriate management strategies and facilities.

Council has a policy to allow certain pro-rata refunds for dog registrations during the registration period.
Dog owners are able to make application to Council if their dog dies, or if the family relocates away from Logan City.
In addition, if a dog has been registered with Council as an non-desexed dog and is subsequently desexed during the registration year, then Council will provide a partial refund to recognise the responsible action of the dog owner in arranging for the desexing of the dog.
