About Leah
Meet Leah, an exquisite 1-year-old Maremma Sheepdog who's looking for a caring and understanding new family. She might come across as timid initially, but beneath her shy exterior lies a world of potential waiting to be unlocked. Her curiosity slowly emerges as she gets to know new people and fellow dogs. Throughout her time at the shelter she has hugely come out of her shell. She loves playing with dogs and people alike and has a real goofy personality.
Leah is a dog who values space and freedom. Ideal for a property with ample room, she loves having plenty of room to explore. A large backyard or open property would be the perfect playground for this majestic dog, giving her the opportunity to stretch her legs and embrace her innate curiosity.
Leah's soulful eyes speak volumes of her dreams for a patient, loving family. Are you prepared to be the one to guide Leah with compassion and watch her transform into the loyal and loving companion she is destined to become? If you have the time and space for this lovely breed, Leah could be your match made in heaven.
Potential adopters should research the breed and have a good understanding of their unique but amazing traits.
Medical notes
No known pre-existing conditions.
Adoption details
We are not open to walk ins, appointments by booking only. All households members must be present before we can adopt an animal out.
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.
