About Barney
Meet Barney, an energetic and charming dog with a huge heart. Known for his affectionate nature, Barney loves nothing more than showing love to his human companions, making him an ideal buddy for someone who enjoys constant companionship.
A big fan of cuddles, Barney is also a smart cookie. He knows basic commands and is toilet trained, showing great potential for further training. His ability to read dog social cues ensures fun and harmonious playdates, although he can be a bit pushy when he gets into his playful puppy mode.
Barney thrives with active families who enjoy regular play and training sessions.
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- CLOSED
Wed- 1-4pm
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.
