About This Dog

Uma's ideal home

Uma is a lovely one-year-old girl with a friendly and affectionate nature who is looking for a patient and understanding family to help her continue building her confidence. She enjoys meeting new people but can feel a little wary in busy crowds, so she would thrive with owners who enjoy quieter walking locations and can help her feel safe and secure. Uma is friendly but cautious around other dogs and is not keen on large, bouncy dogs, preferring calm and respectful canine company instead. She would benefit from ongoing positive dog socialisation and could potentially live with a well-matched dog, (neutered if male) although she would also be happy as the only dog in the home. Uma could live with older secondary school-aged children who are comfortable around large breed dogs and understand when she may need her own space if she feels overwhelmed. With a medium energy level, Uma would love a home that can offer her a balance of adventures, playtime, and plenty of companionship.

Could you be Uma's perfect match?

Despite not having the best start in life, Uma is a young and playful dog with so much love to give. She adores her toys, enjoys spending time with her humans, and would make a fantastic addition to a family that wants to include their dog in everyday life. Uma will need a kind and patient home that can continue to reassure her, help her feel secure, and support her as she settles into family life. In return, she will reward her new family with loyalty, affection, and a fun-loving personality. Uma would suit adopters who are happy to continue her training and socialisation while giving her the time and understanding she needs to truly flourish.
