Moorabool Pet Adoption

Call Directions Website

Moorabool Pet Adoption The Council domestic animal pound is located in Osborne Street, Maddingley. Welcome to the Moorabool Pet Adoption page, managed by Moorabool Shire Council.

This page shares updates about impounded and found animals, pets available for adoption, and general news from our pound. We also post reminders and information to support responsible pet ownership in the community. The Moorabool Pound is a registered Domestic Animal Business (MSCDAB 2025-001) and operates under the Domestic Animals Act 1994. Impounded Animals

Dogs and cats found wandering are held for up to eight days while Council attempts to contact the owner. If not claimed within that time, the animal becomes Council property and is assessed for rehoming. Please note: not all animals in our care are posted online immediately. This can be due to identification checks, health concerns, or legal requirements. Reclaiming Your Pet

Owners reclaiming an impounded animal may need to provide proof of registration and identification. Release fees may apply. Registration Reminder

Pet registration is a legal requirement under the Domestic Animals Act 1994. All dogs and cats over three months of age must be registered with Council and wear a current registration tag. Registration helps ensure lost pets are returned home quickly. Pound Viewing and Collection Hours

The pound is located at Osborne Street, Maddingley. Opening hours for viewing and collecting animals are:
• Monday to Friday: 9.30am–11.30am and 4pm–4.30pm
• Saturday & Sunday: 8.00am–10.00am and 3pm–4pm

Animals are health-checked and, where possible, desexed, vaccinated, and microchipped prior to adoption. To express interest in adopting, please contact council on (03) 5366 7100 or via email at [email protected]. After-Hours Animal Issues

Meet Diesel 🐾

This handsome boy has a gentle, affectionate nature and loves nothing more than spending time with his people. Whether he’s joining you on a daily walk or simply relaxing nearby, Diesel is happiest when he’s close to those he loves.

Diesel gets along well with other dogs and would thrive in a home with a friendly canine sibling to keep him company. He’s social, enjoys companionship, and would love a family that includes him in their everyday life.

Like many dogs, Diesel is still working on his training and will benefit from a patient owner who can continue building his skills with positive reinforcement. With consistency, love, and guidance, he’s sure to become an even more wonderful companion.

If you’re looking for a loyal best friend who’ll happily join you for walks, cuddle by your side, and fill your home with love, Diesel could be the perfect match.
