Hi Gemm,

As Derek stated, the Body Corporate and Queensland Management Act, 1977 states on page 191 under Bylaws:

http://www.legislation.qld.gov.au/LEGISLTN/ACTS/1997/97AC028.pdf

Keeping of animals
11.(1) The occupier of a lot must not, without the body corporate’s
written approval—
(a) bring or keep an animal on the lot or the common property; or
(b) permit an invitee to bring or keep an animal on the lot or the
common property.
(2) The occupier must obtain the body corporate’s written approval
before bringing, or permitting an invitee to bring, an animal onto the lot or
the common property.38
38 However, section 143 of the Act provides as follows—
Guide dogs
143.(1) A person mentioned in the Guide Dogs Act 1972, section
5, who is entitled to be on a lot included in a community titles scheme, or on the
common property, is entitled to be accompanied by a guide dog while on the lot or
common property.
(2) Also, a person mentioned in subsection (1) who is the owner
or occupier of a lot included in a community titles scheme is entitled to keep a
guide dog on the lot.
(3) A by-law cannot exclude or restrict a right given by this
section.

Hope that you can find a different type of housing to overcome this dilema.

All the best,

Trish
