About Tamale
Meet Tamale– One determined little lady, she knows what she wants whether that be to get up on the sofa or another dogs food. She loves a sofa nap, but often forgets about edges and rolls off during wake up stretches. Maybe she's embarrassed and doesn't want to draw attention to herself but she never whinges after a spill, just goes straight back to sleep.
Her breed mix is a total mystery, but if we had to take an educated guess, we’d say there’s a dash of Shar Pei in there somewhere. With her solid build and growing frame, we expect she’ll mature into at least a medium-sized dog, possibly larger and definitely full of personality.
🏡Tamale’s Ideal Home
Active lifestyle: Daily walks, training sessions, and plenty of playtime.
Firm but loving leadership: Like all puppies she will test boundaries—consistency is key.
Canine company welcome: She’d love a doggy sibling and thrives in the company of confident doggy pals who can show her the ropes. Homes without a resident dog should plan for frequent social outings ideally in structured environment where we can learn our manners and social cues.
⚡ Energy Level
Zoomies down the hallway, tug-of-war marathons, then flopping into your lap for a snooze — Tamale switches between play and rest like a champ (with a gentle reminder when it’s downtime).
👧 Children
She's great with dog-savvy kids and applications from family homes are welcomed. She’s learning not to jump, but her sweet nature and love of cuddles make her a wonderful playmate. She is however a puppy and puppies use their mouths to explore so any family with young children would need to outline how they would manage the two.
🐶 Dogs & 🐱 Cats
Dogs: Super social! Still mastering polite canine manners, but responds well to gentle corrections and guidance from you.
Cats: Not yet tested.
If you’re ready for a confident, hilarious and resilient pup who will keep you busy Tamale might be the girl for you.

Our foster carer will contact you when we receive your application to arrange a time for you to meet with their foster pet.
We want your adoption through Maggie's to be a good experience so we will occasionally suggest a different cat or dog that may suit your situation better and the needs of the individual pet.
All our pets leave for their new homes on a two-week trial. At the end of the trial, we will transfer the microchip into your name and provide you with the pets vet certificates. Once you receive the Certificate of Identification from council, your adoption will be complete.
Please consider, that a Maggie's Pet is a pet for Life, before adopting.
