About Mambo no. 5
Meet Mambo No. 5, a delightfully quirky and charismatic dog whose personality is as vibrant as his name. With his unique bug eyes and endearing charm, Mambo is truly one of a kind. He is the epitome of a people-focused, happy-go-lucky companion, always eager to share his love and affection. Friendly and confident, Mambo thrives on human attention and enjoys every pat or cuddle session he can get.
Mambo is well-suited for a bustling multi-dog household, and his demeanor is welcoming to kids of all ages. Not to mention, he gets along comfortably in homes with cats. He is social and neutral with other dogs, always ready for a play session or a simple hangout. However, he is especially enamored with spending time with people, often planting himself right on your lap – earning him the affectionate title of "velcro dog."
Though he has an energetic spirit and a love for play, Mambo can be wonderfully aloof at times, balancing out his enthusiastic personality. This makes him a perfect fit for families who appreciate a playful and poised companion. His favorite activities include playtime with his human friends and engaging with other dogs at social gatherings. However, when it's time to unwind, his ideal place is right beside you.

Adoption details
We run by appointment, prefferibly all members of the household to come meet the animal you are wanting to adopt.
If you own another dog, you must bring them along to make sure all dogs get along.
As our goal is to adopt animals out from the shelter into loving homes as fast as possible, multiple bookings may be made for the same animal.
We are not able to hold any animals for any reason.
As such, there is a possibility that the animal you may have found a forever home before your appointment. If this is the case we will inform you by phone call as soon as possible.
Appointment Hours:
Mon- Fri
1:00PM- 4PM
Saturdays for JULY
Sat 5th 9:00am- 12:00pm

Please give the shelter a call on 5334 2075 or email animalshelter@ballarat.vic.gov.au for more information about the animal and our adoption procedures.
Apologies if we do not reply to your enquiry, we are a busy Shelter and get pulled away from the office often.
We appreciate you wanting to adopt! Please do not let this discourage you from adopting in the future!
