    Tiger – I have owned a Lot in a very large layered strata scheme on several hectares of land in QLD, with over 170 townhouses. Our by laws required that owners submit a photo of the animal when applying for permission to keep the animal. These photos were kept on file by the on site manager. I guess this was a type of “register”.

    When a dog or cat was seen off leash or on common property without their owner then the on site manager was able to identify the animal and contact the owner. The on-site manager then informed the committee of these incidents.  By-law infringement notices could then be issued by the body corporate for repeat offenders.

    If an unidentified animal was seen on scheme land then the council dog catcher was called. 

    It was useful method of monitoring the behaviour of pets and their owners and the compliance with the by-laws, and also dealing with nuisance stray dogs that wandered onto the scheme land.
