When is the Puppy Bowl in 2023? Streaming details, and TV Channel

Fans will be hooked on their televisions today to catch the Super Bowl between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs, as well as Rihanna's halftime show. Nevertheless, Puppy Bowl XIX features a roster of gorgeous, adoptable dogs on their pitch and is broadcast before the main game.

The Puppy Bowl will take place just before the Super Bowl at 2 p.m. ET. The pregame program will begin at 1 p.m. ET. The program, which is in its 19th season, will include more than 100 dogs, a halftime cat show, and a puppy fan club. The program will introduce the audience to pets from across the nation and teach them how to acquire a new furry family member.

122 puppies from 67 rescue organizations from 34 states are included in this year's bowl. According to organizers, the Animal Planet broadcast from the previous season attracted 1.7 million views.

Dan Schachner, the Puppy Bowl referee, will keep count of the scores, tosses, and turnovers the puppies make as they compete on the pitch. Dan Schachner guarantees an entertaining event with the most extensive and varied collection of dogs.

What is the Puppy Bowl?

It is an annual event held to promote animal rescue. In a park littered with toys and two sizable dog teams, Team Ruff and Team Fluff engage in play. Wins go to the squad that can throw the most balls into either end zone.

During its three-hour duration, the competition features animal shelters and rescues, and each participant is a rescue dog.

The event has a charitable purpose, and its planners want to keep the Puppy Bowl's record of 100% widespread adoption alive. The prettiest Super Bowl warmup activity will be broadcast live, so that shouldn't be an issue.

Where to watch the Puppy Bowl?

The Puppy Bowl will be live on Animal Planet this year. Team Ruff and Team Fluff have faced off in the competition for several years. The two sides will once again be featured in the game this year.
