The Bagel Beagles 

There really should’ve been a dozen.

The Animal Rescue League of Boston has a ten-pack of pups up for adoption. Delightfully, they’ve named this pack of Beagles after bagels.

An Off-the-Cuff Ranking From Best to Worst of the 10 Bagel Beagle Names, With Brief Explanations

  • Poppy: This is just a solid dog name. No notes.

  • Sesame: This is also a good dog name, and your days will never be blank.

  • Marble: Somehow, this sounds more like a cat to me. Still, it’s a decent pet name.

  • Blueberry: This is a funny name period, and “Blue” is a great nickname. Plus, as long as it’s a male dog, you’ll always be able to tell him he’s your boy.

  • Egg: Her?

  • Pumpernickel: It’s too long, but somehow, it flows better than…

  • Asiago: …which is also too long, and just seems harder to get out of my mouth.

  • Jalapeño Cheddar:Cheddar” is a fantastic dog name. Jalapeño Cheddar, less so.

  • Cinnamon Raisin: Either half of this works great. Together, it’s a bit much.

  • Everything: This just doesn’t seem like it works at all. Perhaps it can be shortened to “Evie”?

It appears five of the bagel Beagles have already found homes, but at press time, five remain available for adoption, including Marble:
