đŸ¶ Tune in to Animal Planet's Puppy Bowl XIV on February 4 at 1:00 PM

January 24, 2018


Animal Planet's Puppy Bowl XIV is the cutest competition in sports history, featuring an epic matchup between adoptable puppy players from #TeamRuff and #TeamFluff going paw to paw and nose to nose! Don't miss two hours of fuzzy faces, sloppy kisses, incredible interceptions, puppy penalties, and hard-won touchdowns. All the puppy players end up as winners when they find a new home and a new family.

The tail-gating starts at 12:00 PM MST, which includes an all-new locker room webcam. Jokgu, the piano-playing chicken from Season 12 of America's Got Talent, will kick off the game by pecking out “The Star-Spangled Banner” on the keyboard as a blended bunch of baby barnyard cheerleaders — including ducklings, piglets, and baby bunnies — help excite fans from the sidelines.

With a kitty half-time show featuring viral video sensation Prince Michael and Phil the cat from Aaron’s Animals, the annual special offers some serious cuteness for the non-football fan. The two-hour special loops beginning at 1:00 PM MT with the last one airing at 1:00 AM (Monday morning), so even if you plan to watch the game, you can still tune in.

New this year, Animal Planet will premiere the first-ever Puppy Bowl Presents: The Dog Bowl, a newly added furry football competition for adult dog players living in rescues and shelters ... because older dogs are also looking for their "furever" home!
