BadPuppy Review

BadPuppy has been around for over 27 years, entertaining members with a wide variety of hot guys and horny action. The site was recently picked up by the company that runs Daddy on Twink, Southern Strokes, Bears Films, and Bareback That Hole. There has been plenty of changes, and not all of them good, so join me while we take a look at the new real estate.

You'll find smooth and slender twinks, well-built jocks, average guys, bodybuilders, the occasional porn star, a few daddies, guys with beards, plenty of first-time amateurs, gay porn regulars ... the list goes on and on. If you're looking for variety, this is the place to find it. There are tattooed men, clean-cut college types, guys with cock sizes ranging from average to huge, European guys (which means uncut cocks) and Latinos, and model ages range from 18 to maybe their early forties with many performers in their twenties.

While the older content offers mostly solo guys, the newer videos offer more hardcore action, mostly duos with a few threesomes or fourways. There are plenty of guys sucking cock and getting fucked on camera, including both condom and bareback action, and you'll find lots of kissing, asses getting fingered or rimmed, and guys riding hard dicks. There are some outdoor scenes, 69ing, massages, and sometimes a little kink or dildo play. Some of the solo guys do a little muscle posing, and many show off their assholes for the camera. And you'll find plenty of posing in the older photo sets, not to mention lots of masturbation and lots and lots of cumshots. 

The Models section features the most recent guys, but you can also sort them alphabetically.

There are currently 1,667 videos, and this is 490 fewer than were here at the beginning of the year. Some are exclusive, but others are produced and borrowed from other sites. They are available in MP4 format. Each scene, including the older ones, is now offered to download in a single size at 1080p, and the quality ranges from good to average. The vids can be enlarged to full screen and the newer ones fare well with only a little loss of quality; the oldest videos were originally shot at a much smaller size, so they're average quality at best. The videos can also be streamed, each in a single resolution; the newer vids are sharper and clearer than the oldest vids. Good news is that the videos looked good and played well on my phone and tablet.

The site remasters older scenes and re-releases them, and while they are larger than previous older videos here, the quality is still only average. Remastering generally mean improving clarity, fixing artifacts, and updating the video to meet modern standards. However, the couple of remasters I looked at were a little on the disappointing side, while the videos were much larger than previously, they featured lots of artifacting or interlacing whenever there was rapid movement, so scanlines appear around a guy's hand while he's jacking his dick.

There are now 2,146 picture sets, one for each video, plus 479 standalone galleries under Photos, and this is a massive reduction of 1,341 galleries. The photo sizes run from 960x1280 (older) to 1068x1600 (newer), but there may be other sizes. It's worth mentioning that the size of older pictures has gotten a lot bigger and so has the quality. You can view the pics in thumbnail galleries with picture-to-picture navigation; you can download the sets in zip files or just save the individual pics you like. Some episodes come with screencaps instead of digital stills, but the newest screencaps look good enough to pass as digital stills.

One final thing about pictures, on each episode page, there's a Videos and Images tab in the top right corner. The Videos tab features black text on a grey button, but the Images tab is white text on a white button, so you'll only see it if you mouse over the apparent empty space beside the Videos button.

When it comes to updates, Bad Puppy has increased its output to three videos each week, on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. However, since they removed 490 videos, the additions are mostly recycled. For example, the very latest release is a Jack Hunter / Casey Everett video that was produced in 2016; the next release features Stephen Angel and Archi Gold and it is new; and the Joe Hypnotic solo video is a remastered scene. So expect a mix of new and old. You'll find "All Videos" under the Videos dropdown and you'll find everything the site has to offer here, but there's also "Remastered Videos" which separates these scenes into their own section. Some updates had sometimes come from third-party sites like Jawked, Twinks in Shorts, and others, but this may have been the new owners finding their footing with the massive number of videos needing updating.

BadPuppy's bonus content has changed considerably since the site changed hands. Gone is access to ClubAmateurUSA and its 1,055 videos, this is now offered as a standalone site with its own membership fee. The site's offering of third-party gay feeds has been replaced by six other sites from the same company – Bareback That Hole, Bear Films, Hairy and Raw, Southern Strokes, Daddy on Twink, and Touch That Boy – and each offers 14 or 15 videos. The story collection, gay news channel, and discussion forum have also been removed.

There are some downsides. There are two pre-checked offers on the sign-up page. Next, the non-recurring month membership costs $20 more than the recurring version. There's a row of thumbs at the bottom of the members homepage that are actually ads for a live cam site, as well there are a couple of links on the Extras selection on the navbar that take you offsite. As I have already mentioned, there are 490 fewer videos and 1,341 picture galleries have disappeared. 

There's no category list, although each video does have a list of tags which you can click to get more of what you're looking for. There's also a search box, and the results have improved since our last visit. There's also no profiles or info about the models appearing on the site. Badpuppy has lost a lot of its charm, but the new owners are working hard to remaster older scenes and get them back on the site, although they have used filler content from other sites.

BadPuppy offers all sorts of twinks, jocks, Euro boys, and other guys sucking cock, fucking and jerking off, plus some kinkier stuff here and there, and the site has changed hands with some not-so-great changes. The site now offers 1,667 videos and adds three updates weekly and these are a mix of new, recycled, remaster, and third party scenes. There are around 90 bonus videos from six other sites, but this is still a fraction of the bonus content that was here previously. BadPuppy still has lots of content and a lot going for it, and the tour has previews of all the updates to give you an idea of what to expect.
