THE PUPPY BOWL!

Do you like puppies? Do you enjoy sporting events where everyone ends up a winner? If so, you have to watch the Puppy Bowl!

Not sure what it is? It’s exactly what it sounds like……it’s the Big Game, except swap out 2-legged players for 4-legged ones, a lot more fur, and potentially more cuteness (depending what floats your boat, we suppose.)

Fur real though, it’s a 3-hour special, featuring 70 adoptable shelter pups. The puppies are broken into 2 teams, Team Ruff and Team Fluff, who go head to head in an attempt to nab the “Lombarky” trophy.

Animal Planet hosts this majestic event each year. Much like the big game day itself, the puppy version includes a pre-game show, a starting line up, a “road to the puppy bowl” segment and more.

If you want a taste, you can stream last year’s event here:

 

And good news, Puppy Bowl is back for 2021! Puppy Bowl XVII (17) airs February 7th at 2pm EST on Discovery + and Animal Planet.
