Adoption information
About Bandit
Meet Bandit! He's a gentle, calm dog with a sweet disposition. Though initially a bit timid, Bandit is full of potential and love, and he's ready to find his new family. Once he bonds with you, his affectionate personality truly shines, and his loyalty will warm your heart.
Bandit does well in multi-dog homes and is friendly with people of all ages, making him a great addition to a family with children. While he's a curious pup, he can sometimes be a little scared of other dogs, so a home with a secure fenced yard would be ideal for his safety. Despite his initial shyness, he knows basic commands and is toilet trained, showcasing his potential for learning and growth.
With a patient and loving owner willing to invest some time in socialisation and training, Bandit will thrive. His people-focused nature means he eagerly wants to be part of the family, and once he feels secure, he will be a truly loyal companion. If you're looking for a gentle dog who needs some encouragement to come out of his shell, Bandit could be the perfect match for you.

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!
