About Bella
Meet Bella, a gentle and happy lady looking for her new family. Bella's diverse and delightful personality suits a variety of households, making it easy for her to fit in.
She may be neutral initially with other dogs, but she appreciates the company of a quieter, older canine sibling. Starting off a bit reserved, Bella needs a little time to warm up to strangers, but once she does, her affection and loyalty show her true personality.
Always curious, Bella is a thoughtful observer of the world around her. Despite her independent nature, Bella is people-focused and thrives on gentle companionship, relishing the soft and calm handling.
Though Bella isn't one to initiate play, she appreciates the gentle presence of other dogs. Her politeness stands out as she navigates her surroundings quietly and confidently. Secure fencing will keep her safe and sound as she satisfies her curiosity outdoors.
Medical notes
Arthritis hind legs with muscle atrophy.
Wear on canines.
Premolars and molars periodontal disease.
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 Sept
10am-1pm
Sat 6th
Sat 20th
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!
