Gearing up for Super Bowl XLV? What better way to get ready for the big game than to watch puppies duke it out on the gridiron in Puppy Bowl VII. Nothing gets a party amped-up for the Super Bowl like watching cute and cuddly puppies chase a ball around and engage in an adorable game of football.
This time around, the Puppy Bowl has gone high-tech, introducing a Puppy Cam, giving viewers a first-hand look at all the action through the eyes of the players themselves. The Water Bowl Cam is, of course, back again this year, putting fans right in the middle of the action as our four-legged friends stay hydrated during the big game.
Puppy Bowl VII will also be broadcast in 3-D for the first time ever on 3net, a brand new channel hosted by Discovery Channel, Sony and IMAX. The action comes straight to your living room live, and in 3-D, should you have one of those fancy 3-D TVs all the cool kids have.
The lineups can be found here and it'd be a good idea to get acquainted with the competitors ahead of the game. Take, for instance, Pauly, the perfect Jersey Shore Fox Terrier. In his free-time, he loves spinnin' the freshest cuts as a DJ. Or Sadie, an adorable 12-week-old Pitbull that sleeps with a teddy bear.
Check out Puppy Bowl, the big game before the big game, at 3 p.m. on Animal Planet. For more on the pregame festivities ahead of Super Bowl 45, check out our StoryStream.
