Barking Dogs
Excessive barking is a nuisance offence under the Domestic Animals Act 1994. If your neighbour's dog is barking frequently then you should initally attempt to speak to the neighbour before lodging a complaint with Council.
Your neighbour may not be aware that the dog is causing a nuisance if the barking occurs when no-one is home. If you cannot resolve the issue with your neighbour and the problem continues then you can contact Council on 1800 065 993 to lodge a complaint.
To lodge a complaint, council will require a noise complaint assessment to be completed.
Council also requires a record of the occurances of the specified noise on a noise log sheet for a period 7 days or the time as specified by Council. Once the log is completed, the assessment and log sheet can be returned to the Compliance derpartment at the Strathbogie Shire Council
