Adoption information
About Missy
Meet Missy, a very sweet girl. She's a little timid with people at first but is always well-mannered. She shows a remarkable ability to listen and respond to handlers.
Missy enjoys being around other dogs. Her excitement around other dogs is infectious, and she maintains positive relationships by giving fair corrections when play gets a bit too much. Her friendly demeanor and tolerance make her a fantastic addition to a multi-dog home.
Being a kelpie, Missy will need daily exercise, plenty of physical play and mental enrichment to keep her engaged.
Though she knows basic commands and is toilet trained, Missy will benefit from continued training in her new home. Her eagerness to learn and please makes the task a rewarding one.
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 - Dogs Only
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!
