Queensland Councils: Reporting and Managing Problem Dogs

If a dog is barking too much, contact your local council. You can reach them through their website, phone, or email. Give the dog owner’s address and explain when and how long the barking happens. The council will check the complaint and may issue a warning or fine if it breaks local laws.

Queensland Government can help stop barking dogs
