We did it, Maine. Our dogs are officially cute enough to participate in the Puppy Bowl this year which of course, airs with the Super Bowl on February 9th, 2025. Will you be team Fluff this year or Ruff?

What time does the 2025 Puppy Bowl start?

The puppies will start playing at 2 p.m. ET / 11 a.m. PT, so make sure you set your alarm considering almost every year I forget to turn it on until it's too late. You can watch all 131 pups this year romp around on Animal Planet. The best part about this program is if you absolutely fall in love with a certain pup on your T.V you have a chance at adopting them if you hurry.

How to adopt the dogs in the Puppy Bowl

If you see an animal you’re interested in adopting, go to AnimalPlanet.com and find the shelter or rescue where that puppy lives. You can reach them directly and inquire about adoption. In Tula's case, the Maine pup featuring in the game this year, you can inquire about her adoption by directly contacting the Animal Refugee of Greater Portland.

Where can I watch the Puppy Bowl?

It'll air on your T.V on Animal Planet, or you can stream it online here.
