Get ready for the cutest Super Bowl ever! This year's Puppy Bowl XXI features a record-breaking 142 dogs, including 11 with disabilities. Six adorable pups from Iowa will be competing in the game, all previously under the care of AHeinz57 Pet Rescue & Transport in De Soto.
The Puppy Bowl is a televised event that showcases adorable puppies from shelters across the country. It's a fun way to celebrate the Super Bowl and learn about adoption. This year's game will feature 142 puppies from 80 shelters across 40 states and two countries.
The Puppy Bowl airs on February 9th at 1 p.m. CT on Animal Planet, Discovery, TBS, truTV, and streaming service Max. You can also watch a pregame show at noon featuring ten puppy prospects competing to join Team Ruff or Team Fluff.
If you're in Iowa, you can watch the Puppy Bowl with friends at Paws & Pints from 12-4 p.m. on Sunday. All six Iowa puppies will be there along with other dogs from AHeinz57. Tickets are $15 in advance for adults or $5 for kids. Adult tickets will go up by $5 at the door.
This year's Puppy Bowl features two sets of siblings: Cece and Pizzazz, and Orla and Erin. All six puppies have already been adopted, but you can still adopt a dog or cat from AHeinz57 Pet Rescue & Transport by visiting their website at aheinz57.com.
