Brr... it's cold outside! It's the perfect time for you to adopt one of the Brr puppies, an irresistibly sweet litter of Maltese/Terrier mix babies who are ready to find their forever homes. These five pups had a rough start, having been dumped at a shelter when they were just five weeks old, but thanks to foster care they have blossomed into happy, curious, and loving 8 week old puppies who are eager to take on the world with their future families.

Daily Life & Routine

The Brr Puppies start their day around 7:00 am. First up is a trip to the pee pads, which they are learning to use as part of their potty training. While they’re still very much puppies and accidents happen, they’re getting lots of practice and positive reinforcement. After that, they spend a little time in their crate while their pen is cleaned and refreshed.

Breakfast and water are served around 7:30 am, and fresh water is offered about every hour throughout the day to keep these growing pups well hydrated. They enjoy lunch around noon, an afternoon feeding between 4:30–5:00 pm, and a small snack before bedtime around 8:30–9:00 pm. Their days are filled with naps, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of puppy mischief in between.

Puppy Personalities

Icicle is the most outgoing of the group. Confident, curious, and full of personality, she loves attention and wants to be right in the middle of whatever is happening. She enjoys exploring new spaces and is always eager for interaction and fun.

Snowflake is right behind Icicle in confidence. She is affectionate, social, and loves being held and entertained. Snowflake is inquisitive and excited by new experiences, making her a great little adventure buddy in the making.

Frosty is playful with a thoughtful side. She tends to take a moment to observe new situations before jumping in. Initially she may try to stay back when faced with something unfamiliar, but once she sees her siblings having fun, she happily joins the action and shows her playful spirit.

Blizzard is the most gentle of the bunch. He’s perfectly content to sit quietly on your lap, soaking in affection, before eventually relaxing and drifting off to sleep. He has a calm, soothing presence and thrives on quiet companionship.

Flurry is the ultimate snuggle bug. With her big, soulful eyes, she melts hearts instantly and loves curling up close— often snuggling right into your neck. While her siblings may be busy playing, Flurry is the one most likely to crawl under a blanket and snooze peacefully.

What They’re Like as a Group

The Brr Puppies adore playing with each other and their toys, tumbling and wrestling in classic puppy fashion. They are still young and can startle at loud or sudden noises, but when they feel safe and secure, they happily give sweet puppy kisses and soak up affection. They are learning every day and will thrive in homes ready to continue their socialization, training, and confidence-building with patience and love.

These little ones are at a wonderful age to bond deeply with their adopters and grow into affectionate, loyal companions. Each puppy has a unique personality, but all share the same need for gentle guidance, consistency, and plenty of cuddles as they begin their next chapter.
