Meet the End Puppies: The Cutest Little Bunch of Butts Around
The End Puppies are a litter of 9–10 week old Beagle/JRT mixes (with probably a few other breeds thrown in there for good measure) who are ready to put their shelter days behind them and wiggle their way into forever homes. They are currently in the 5-6 lb range and we expect they'll be in the 20 lb range when full grown. They each have their own distinct personality, but they all share the most important puppy qualities: they are playful, curious, affectionate, and exceptionally talented at being adorable.
Peach and Badonkadonk are fostered as a pair.
Peach and Badonkadonk are playful, affectionate puppies who spend their days perfecting the essential puppy skills of eating, wrestling, exploring, and falling asleep in ridiculously cute positions.
Their day begins by 7 a.m., when they let their foster know they are ready to get moving. They head outside for an hour of playtime before returning for breakfast. The rest of the day is spent playing and napping in their pen, with food available to graze on when their foster is at the office. Once their foster comes home, they enjoy another hour of outdoor playtime, followed by dinner and more puppy fun before settling into their pen around 11 p.m.
Both puppies are doing very well using potty pads, although their adopters should expect to continue all the usual puppy training as they grow. Peach and Badonkadonk enjoy each other’s company, but they are looking for separate forever homes where each can receive plenty of individual love, attention, training, and socialization.
Peach: Small but Clever
Peach is a sweet little baby who loves being held. She is an affectionate girl who will happily snuggle into your arms, then curl up for a nap—sometimes using one of her toys as a tiny pillow.
Don’t let her petite size fool you, though. When she and Badonkadonk race around the yard, Peach knows exactly how to use her smaller stature to her advantage. She darts through spaces her taller brother can’t navigate quite as easily, giving herself an edge in their backyard adventures.
Peach combines sweetness, cleverness, and playful puppy energy in one precious little package. She would love a family ready to hold her close, cheer on her zoomies, and provide plenty of toys suitable for both playing and pillow duty.
Badonkadonk: Making a Splash
Badonkadonk is a cuddly boy with a goofy streak. He will happily climb into his foster’s lap for snuggles, but if someone tries to scoop him up, he may scamper away—or become an exceptionally wiggly armful. Why be carried when you have four perfectly good puppy legs?
His favorite “toy” is the water bowl. Badonkadonk loves splashing around in it, creating his own private puppy water park, and then voicing his dissatisfaction when the water becomes dirty or mysteriously disappears. The fact that he caused both problems is apparently beside the point.
This funny, playful boy is full of personality and affection. He’s looking for a family that appreciates a puppy with strong opinions, excellent lap-climbing skills, and a commitment to keeping the water-bowl entertainment flowing.
