Animals in the pound

You will need to pay the fee before we can release your pet from the centre. If your pet is not already microchipped and registered you will also need to pay for that. See the NSW Government's current registration fees.

Once you have paid the fees and unregistered pets have been registered and microchipped, you can then make an appointment with our rangers on (02) 6655 7300 to pick up your animal.

Animals can only be returned to the owner in person or an appointed agent. You will need to provide personal identification that matches the ownership information recorded in the animal’s registration and microchip details.

If your animal is not microchipped or registered, you will need to provide a statutory declaration confirming your ownership claim before we can release your pet. Statutory declarations can be obtained and completed at the Council Administration building.
