About Dory
Meet Dory, a sweet and affectionate canine companion with a heart full of love to give. Though it may take a little time for her to warm up to new faces, once she trusts you, she's a loyal friend for life. Dory is the kind of dog who finds her greatest joy in snuggling up beside you on the couch, making her the perfect partner for cozy nights in.
Dory thrives in the presence of her human companions, so a household where someone is home often would be ideal. She does experience some separation anxiety, so she's looking for a patient new family who understands her need for reassurance and is ready to provide the attention and companionship she craves. While it's important to note her aversion to long periods alone, Dory lights up when other dogs are around, happily playing and exploring together. She's even well-suited for homes with dog-confident cats, sharing her gentle and friendly spirit seamlessly across different species.
Dory's future home will be built with the understanding and warmth that match her loving nature. For a family seeking a snuggle buddy and a loyal friend, Dory is eagerly waiting to be the cherished member of your household she deserves to be.

Adoption details
We run by appointment, preferably 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 Oct
10am-1pm
Sat 4th
Sat 18th
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!
