Pointer puppies and dogs in Fitchburg, Massachusetts

Meet Sherman! 🐾❤️ Sherman has been loving life in foster, and the more time he has to settle in, the more his sweet personality shines! Once he settles in, he’s an affectionate cuddle bug who loves belly rubs, scratches, and sleeping in bed with his people. Sherman can be a lazy boy at times, and is often found lounging on the bed, but don’t let that fool you, he also loves to play, and occasionally gets the zoomies! He’s smart and food motivated — he quickly figured out a food puzzles and loves lick mats. We think he’d have a blast learning tricks with his forever family. Bonus, he is fully house trained, and lets you know when he needs to go out by heading toward the door. Like many young dogs, Sherman has some puppy behaviors, like trying to play with items that are not toys. Fortunately, he responds well to redirection with toys, and yummy treats! A fenced yard would be ideal for Sherman so he can safely run and explore. He would do best with a family willing to be patient as he continues coming out of his shell, and ideally one that is home more often to give him the love, attention, enrichment, and guidance he deserves. Give this sweet boy a little time, and you’ll discover just how special he is! ❤️🐶 🌟 Sherman does have an old knee injury, likely a previous CCL tear. After further evaluation with our vet partners, surgery is now recommended. Baypath Humane Society will be covering the cost of his surgery, which is expected to take place later this year once he has had a chance to settle into his forever home.

Meet Winter & Duncan 🐾 Born around July 21, 2026, Winter and Duncan are two incredibly affectionate, gentle puppies who have been raised with nothing but love, kindness, kisses, and plenty of cuddles in their foster home. These babies are expected to grow into BIG dogs! They already have huge paws and are likely to be quite substantial when fully grown. Their dad is a purebred black German Shepherd, and they appear to have some bird-dog in their mix as well, with their adorable floppy ears and lots of speckles. ❄️ Winter Winter is a tiny, very chill and reserved little runt. She’s extremely shy at first and takes a little while to feel comfortable enough to play with her siblings. Once she warms up, though, her personality comes shining through — she turns into a hilarious little turd who absolutely loves attention, cuddles, and being held. She can be timid in new situations, but with patience and reassurance she blossoms into a sweet, affectionate little cuddlebug. 🖤 Duncan Chunky Dunky Duncan is the fat boy of the pair! He loves being first at absolutely everything and has a wonderfully brave, confident personality. He’s smart, determined, and definitely a little hardheaded — he knows what he wants! He’s also an enormous cuddlebug once he gets sleepy and would happily curl up with his people. And yes… Duncan has fat rolls. 😂 ❤️ Total Velcro Babies Both puppies are extremely people-oriented and affectionate. They love all people and want to be wherever their humans are. They’ll sleep on you, beside you, at your feet — basically anywhere they can be close to you. They are the ultimate little Velcro puppies and would much rather lie next to their foster mum and watch what she’s doing than be off by themselves. Their foster says they are some of the most relaxed and chill puppies she has ever had. They have full run of the house and spend their days playing with their toys, exploring, then settling down for cuddles and kisses. They even have their own room filled with toys, and they absolutely love to play! 🐱 Great With Cats Winter and Duncan are being raised alongside 11 cats and couldn't care less about them. They don't chase or bother the cats — at most, they'll wander over for a curious little sniff before carrying on with their day. 🐶 Learning About Other Dogs They have been a little timid around other dogs, especially because the older dogs in their foster home weren't particularly interested in playing with them. Recently, they've started gaining confidence and have been happily interacting with their foster's Great Pyrenees. They love lying on her, chewing on her, and playing around her. 💦 WATER BABIES! These two absolutely LOVE water! Give them a hose and they'll happily bite at the water, splash around, and play in a little pool of water and mud. They're going to have so much fun with an adventurous family! 📏 Future Size They are still very young — only around 7 weeks old — so their adult size is still an estimate. • Duncan: already at least around 8–10 lbs and likely to be a big boy • Winter: around 5 lbs or possibly less • Both have huge paws and are expected to grow into large dogs • These aren't going to be tiny lapdogs — they're likely to be big, beautiful dogs with big personalities and even bigger hearts. Winter and Duncan have known nothing but love, kindness, cuddles, and kisses in their foster home. They are playful, affectionate, people-loving, sleepy little cuddlebugs who simply want to be near their humans. If you're looking for a loyal, loving companion who will follow you around the house, sleep at your feet, and happily climb into your lap for cuddles, Winter or Duncan may be your perfect match. ❤️🐾 **They do not have to be adopted together** Duncan and Winter are current on age-appropriate vaccinations, current on flea/tick and heart worm prevention, microchipped, current on de-wormer, and will receive a clean bill of health from a licensed veterinarian prior to transport.

Espresso Cafe | The Thoughtful Little Cup of Sweetness Espresso Cafe may have a coffee-shop name, but this little guy is more slow sip than double shot. Thoughtful, gentle, and a little reserved at first, Espresso likes to take a moment to figure out his surroundings before showing you the sweet, affectionate puppy underneath. Watch Espresso and his siblings in action, then come back to read more! At 4 months old and approximately 16 lbs, Espresso is a Pointer/Labrador Retriever mix and one of four puppies in the adorable Café Litter. He's dressed in a beautiful white coat covered in the cutest tan details—including a patch around his right eye, little cow-like spots scattered across his back, and a dipped tail that completes his one-of-a-kind look. Of the Café puppies, Espresso is the more reserved and thoughtful one. While some puppies might immediately throw themselves into the middle of everything, Espresso prefers to investigate first. You'll often find him sniffing around a new environment, quietly checking things out, and giving himself a little time to decide that everything is okay. Give him that time, and you'll see the change. Once Espresso gets comfortable, he happily accepts scratches, rubs, and affection, and one of the sweetest signs that you've earned his trust is the little smile that appears across his face—with his tongue hanging out as he finally relaxes. That's when you know Espresso has decided you're alright. And reserved certainly doesn't mean boring! Underneath that thoughtful exterior is still a playful, curious 4-month-old puppy who's ready to explore, have fun, and enjoy all the silliness that comes with puppyhood. He simply appreciates being given a chance to warm up rather than being rushed into new experiences. Espresso has also grown up alongside his three Café Litter siblings, giving him wonderful early socialization with other young puppies. He's accustomed to playing, exploring, and sharing his world with his brothers and sister, and continued positive socialization will help his confidence keep growing. This sweet boy would especially appreciate a family that understands the magic of a slower, softer approach. Let him sniff. Let him observe. Give him some gentle encouragement and affection without expecting too much too quickly. It doesn't take Espresso long to come around, and watching that playful, affectionate puppy emerge makes the wait completely worth it. Like any puppy his age, Espresso will still need his forever family to continue teaching all the basics—potty training, crate training, leash skills, basic commands, appropriate chewing, and positive socialization—with patience and consistency as he grows. Espresso doesn't need to be the boldest puppy in the room to make an impression. His charm is a little quieter: a curious sniff around a new space, a gentle request for scratches, that tongue-out smile when he realizes he's safe, and the playful puppy waiting just underneath. Espresso Cafe is thoughtful, inquisitive, affectionate, and oh-so-sweet. Give this handsome spotted boy a little time to get comfortable, and he'll happily show you just how much puppy love he's been brewing.
