About Dexter
Meet Dexter, an adorable young pup eager to fill your life with joy and laughter!
While he still carries some puppy energy, Dexter’s goofy personality is emerging beautifully. He warmly welcomes both canine and human friends, delighting in every playful encounter. Dexter is affectionate and sweet, consistently seeking out love and attention.
He has excellent manners and, with a bit of guidance and basic training, Dexter is sure to blossom into a well-mannered adult dog.
If you're prepared to invest some time in training and guiding this lovable goofball, Dexter offers a promise of endless fun and love. If a little puppy fun sounds appealing, Dexter might just be the furry friend you’ve been searching for!
A home without livestock and without cats would be ideal for Dexter.

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!
