About Roxy
Roxy is a beautiful soul wrapped in a soft speckled coat and the kindest eyes you’ll ever see. This gentle girl has come such a long way since arriving at the shelter — once terrified and unsure, she’s now learning what it means to be loved and safe.
Roxy’s ideal home is one filled with patience, kindness, and understanding. She’s still shy when meeting new people and can be nervous in unfamiliar environments, but once she trusts you, she’ll become your most loyal and loving companion.
She’s currently living happily in foster care with both dogs and cats, and gets along beautifully with them. Roxy enjoys her walks and playtime, but she’s equally content just being by your side, soaking up cuddles or quietly keeping you company.
Her motivation? Treats! Roxy absolutely loves her snacks and will do just about anything for them — a perfect way to win her heart and help build her confidence.
Roxy will thrive in a calm, patient home that can give her time to settle and blossom at her own pace. Once she feels safe, her affectionate and loyal nature shines through — and she’ll repay your patience a hundred times over with love and devotion.
If you’ve got a gentle heart and a quiet space, Roxy is ready to fill it with warmth.

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 November
10am-1pm
Sat 1st
Sat 15th
Sat 29th
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!
