About Stubz

Meet Stubz! Stubz is a sweet, affectionate Shepherd mix, weighing 40 pounds. He was born around March 16, 2026, and currently lives in a foster home in Pembroke, MA. Stubz loves to be close to his people and enjoys cuddling. When he wants more belly rubs, he’ll gently paw at your arm. He may take a bit of time to warm up to unfamiliar faces, but with patience and a calm approach, his playful nature really shines through. He adores running, hiking, exploring the woods, digging, and playing outside. Stubz is crate trained and improving on house training, managing several days without accidents if kept to a consistent potty schedule. His ideal home would be active and patient, allowing him the time he needs to adjust. Stubz enjoys other dogs and would thrive with a compatible playmate. However, he can be a bit enthusiastic when playing, so he benefits from guidance on when to take breaks. Though he may initially hold back with new people, Stubz quickly becomes comfortable with treats and a calming introduction. He has had positive experiences with middle and high school-aged children, but his history with younger kids is limited. Ready to welcome this loving young pup into your life?
