About Rocket
Meet Rocket, a sprightly 14-year-old canine who embodys the saying "age is just a number." Despite the years, Rocket doesn't look or act his age; he's full of vitality and joy, easily keeping up with dogs much younger than him.
Rocket's affectionate nature is boundless, and he has a remarkable ability to form bonds with everyone he meets. His easy-going demeanor makes him an ideal companion for families of all sizes, and his calm and friendly approach is perfect for those seeking a reliable and loving canine friend.
Rocket has an amiable disposition when it comes to other dogs. His social skills are impeccable, as he enjoys mingling with dogs of various breeds and sizes, displaying the patience of a wise elder statesman.
Whether you're looking for a reliable friend or a more active companion with the heart of a pup, Rocket could be the perfect addition to your home alongside other dogs or as the main canine focus in your life. He's ready to share his golden years filled with love, fun, and delight with a new family ready to embrace his charming blend of wisdom and playfulness.

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
Sat 19th 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!
