Hi there. We arrive in Australia 5 weeks ago. We are in the sunshine coast. We have 2 lab cross dogs. you can get a rental with dogs, we found a brand new home that has taken us and our two dogs, we do have to get the carpets cleaned before we leave but thats not a problem. There are just less to choose from, but they are there. Re the licensing. This was new to us until we went to sign our agreement as no one had explained this to us. But do not fret its a simple process. We went to the local council paid $45 for one dog (bitch that is de sexed) and $90 for the other (dog unsexed). They did it there and then. Once registered it means that if you have a problem dog that barks all day and night the neighbours can complain to the council and they can act on it. The license is annual and if you move the licence does not move with you, you have to pay again! Also bear in mind that you only need to register dogs with the council if your block (land on which your house is on) is less than 1000 square meters. If it is a 1000 meters or over then you do not require a licence. To be fair most of the rentals are on smaller blocks, ours is only 500, but they do exist. I also bought references from both my neighbours to state that my dogs have never been any problem/nuisance to them, this helped when presenting information to the owners. I hope this helps.
