Some 80 animal shelters put forth the 142 dogs that star in the three-hour Puppy Bowl XXI.
Dan Schachner returns for the 14th time to referee the game, which includes Team Fluff and Team Ruff competing on a miniature football field. Commentary will be provided by Steve Levy and Taylor Rooks.
Team Fluff includes Julep, a St. Bernard mix, and Smoosh, a Pekingese.
Team Ruff stars Mr. Pickles, a Pug-Chihuahua, and Tuani, a Chihuahua-German Shepherd.
In a 1 p.m. kickoff, various dogs will participate in drills for a chance to be drafted into Fluff or Ruff.
The festivities will include “Pup Close and Personal” stories — heartfelt segments featuring Derrick Nandi of the Kansas City Chiefs and Dan + Shay’s Dan Smyers.
