LOCAL POUNDS & SHELTERS QLD
By law an impounded animal can be held at a pound for a minimum of 3 days if not registered with the council, and 5 days if it is registered with the council. Please be aware that if your pet is not wearing the council registration tag and cannot be identified by the council, it may be treated as a non-registered pet and held for only 3 days before a decision is may to re-sell or destroy.
In any QLD region be it Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast or any other if you lose a pet you need to involve local government pounds and rescue organisations like the RSPCA QLD in your pet search as soon as possible. Depending on the individual Council law your dog or cat may only be kept for a limited time after being impounded before the decision is made to re-home or worse. The longer your pet is in the pound the higher the fees you may need to pay to bail them out.
