Adoption information
About Velvet
Meet Velvet, a delightful and curious dog who's all about fun and adventure.
Velvet will thrive in an environment that offers daily exercise and mental stimulation. Being an active breed, she enjoys running, playing, and exploring. Her love for treats makes her easy to train, and she'll be thrilled to learn new tricks in exchange for tasty rewards.
Velvet's social nature means she can live happily with other dogs and kids, making her the perfect companion for family life, but she can get a little jumpy when she's excited. It's important to have secure fencing in place to keep Velvet safe while she plays and explores her yard.
If you're looking for a friendly, food-motivated companion ready to fill your days with fun and warmth, Velvet is eager to meet you!
Medical notes
X-rays revealed bilateral tibial growth plate fracture. Treatment: Repeat of X-rays and surgery treatment may be necessary if displacement is severe or signs do not resolve.
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 March
14th & 28th
10am-1pm
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!
