About Nellie
Meet Nellie, a gentle and sweet old girl who is ready to find her new family. With her charming personality and endearing nature, she is sure to melt your heart.
Nellie is food-motivated and loves her treats, often revealing a cheeky side that keeps everyone smiling. She knows some basic commands and is toilet trained, making her a well-mannered companion.
Although she may not be as spry as she once was, this lovely lady is still full of life and would thrive in a home with secure fencing to ensure her safety. Nellie could live with another dog. She is seeking a calm environment where she can enjoy her golden years in peace.
If you're looking for a loyal, loving, and easygoing companion to share your days with, Nellie would make a wonderful addition to your family. She is ready to fill your home with love and companionship.

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!
