About Olive
Meet Olive, a sweet-natured dog who's ready to fill your life with love. Initially a bit timid, Olive blossoms into a loving companion when she feels secure and at home.
Olive feels her best in a multi-dog household, where her fellow pups boost her confidence. She also does well alongside dog-savvy kids who are patient and understand her need for gentle interaction. Give her a little time to warm up, and Olive will happily become your devoted lap dog, eager for cuddles.
Although she starts off a bit reserved, Olive is very food-motivated, making her a great candidate for positive reinforcement training. With regular socialisation, she'll gain the confidence to enjoy new experiences with people and other dogs.
If you're ready to offer Olive the patient and nurturing home she needs, you'll be rewarded with a loyal and loving companion.
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- 1-4pm
Tues- 1-4pm
Wed- CLOSED
Thurs- 1-4pm
Fri- 1-4pm
Sat- 9am-12:30pm
Sun- CLOSED
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!
This pet has been adopted and found love with its new family.
