While in the Nashville area last week, Brian Littrell, Nick Carter, AJ McLean, Howie Dorough and Kevin Richardson cuddled some 9-10 week old Shepherd-mix puppies at a local shelter that were named after each of them.  Each member took a photo with their namesake puppy [and the sixth pup named Millenium] and the results are absolutely adorable!

“All of us at NHA [Nashville Humane Association] are still in awe that this introduction happened, and we are so excited to share the news with you!” the shelter captioned the photos of the puppies and BSB members.

“As you can see from the photos in this post, the experience was Larger Than Life for all involved! We are so grateful for this superstardom support towards raising adoption awareness for some adorable 9–10-week-old shepherd mix shelter pups!⁠”

Four of the six puppies (Brian, Nick, Kevin and Millennium) were available for adoption beginning September 12 with AJ and Howie expected to be ready later in the week.
