+    :tags: bug, postgresql
+    :tickets: 7943
+
+    Implemented :attr:`_postgresql.UUID.python_type` attribute for the
+    :class:`_postgresql.UUID` type object. The attribute will return either
+    ``str`` or ``uuid.UUID`` based on the :paramref:`_postgresql.UUID.as_uuid`
+    parameter setting. Previously, this attribute was unimplemented. Pull
+    request courtesy Alex Grönholm.
