About Steven
Meet Steven, your potential new best friend. This "velcro dog" thrives on being close to his people, always seeking company and affection. His people-focused nature makes him the perfect cuddle buddy and an ideal companion for someone who spends a lot of time at home.
Steven is a smart cookie, thanks to his strong food motivation and eagerness to please. He knows his basic commands, and he's fully toilet trained, which will make settling him into a new home easier. However, Steven does experience stress when left alone for long periods, so he'd do best in a home where he can enjoy frequent companionship.
He appreciates mental enrichment, so puzzle toys or training sessions keep his mind sharp and engaged. Steven is tolerant of other dogs and can live with a companion but values human attention the most.
If you're looking for a devoted, intelligent, and loving companion, Steven might be the perfect match for you. Embrace the rewarding experience of welcoming this loyal friend into your life, and you'll surely enjoy countless joyful moments together.
Medical notes
No known pre-existing conditions.
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 February
10am-1pm
Sat 14th
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!
