Adoption information
About Samantha
Meet Samantha, a gentle and intelligent canine companion ready to find her place in a loving family. While she may be a bit timid at first and take some time to warm up to new faces, her heart is full of love and potential. Once she trusts you, her playful side shines through, and you'll see her true sweet personality.
Samantha is a bright girl with a curious mind, and she thrives in an environment where she can enjoy daily exercise and mental enrichment. Being toy motivated, she loves engaging playtimes, which also help build a special bond. Her good lead manners and knowledge of basic commands make walks a pleasant experience for you both.
This lovely lady is already toilet trained. Samantha will require a 6-foot colorbond fence to ensure her safety while spending time in her backyard. She can live with a calm canine companion, although she's currently a little under-socialized with other dogs, she would benefit from more exposure to other dogs. With patience and guidance, Samantha can continue to blossom as your loyal friend. So if you have a calm household and room in your heart for a cautious yet loving girl, Samantha may just 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- 1-4pm
Tues- 1-4pm
Wed- CLOSED
Thurs- 1-4pm
Fri- 1-4pm

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!
