Ownership
Mount Isa properties within the defined town area are legally owned to keep up to two registered dogs at any one time. If you desire to keep more canine friends, you will need to apply for a special permit from the Mount Isa City Council.
Registration
In Mount Isa, all pets—including cats and dogs—must be registered each year with Mount Isa City Council. This process is highly important for the wellbeing of your animal, and can also give you peace of mind in the unfortunate situation your pet gets lost.
Registration tags
When your dog is listed with the council, they’ll be given a registration tag. Pets must wear these tags on their collar at all times, allowing your pet to be easily identified if found straying or lost in the area.
Exercise areas
It’s highly important to ensure your animal is exercised each day. Although you’re able to walk your dog leashed in most public places, off-leash exercise is the best option for your pet. For an area that allows off-leash walking, head to Edna Medly Park on Sunset Drive.
Health & wellbeing
Keeping on top of your pet’s wellbeing is the first step to ensuring them a happy and healthy life. From getting them desexed and immunised to checking their dental hygiene and general health, there are so many ways to keep your animal free from illnesses.
