  • 1.  Puppy Bowl

    Posted 02-07-2026 05:01 PM

    Hello, all. 

    I have dug around, and I've yet to understand where/who/how I would get into contact with Animal Planet about trying to enter some puppies into the Puppy Bowl. I know this year is over, because they film months in advance, but I would like to try for this next year. We're a new, small little shelter rebuilding currently and it would get some notice from our community and some eyes on our available pups and dogs (and kitties!) with this type of publicity.

    I (like many others) did not realize the puppies came from rescues/shelters, if in fact they did. It would be amazing if they gave a nod to the rescue/shelter.  That would be a huge step forward in getting people to adopt.  Every time Hollywood produces a movie with a dog in it that breeds seems to become popular with back yard breeders and we start getting an influx of that breed at the shelter.
