To celebrate 20 years of the Puppy Bowl, Best Friends Animal Society is teaming up with Warner Bros. Discovery to help adoptable pets find loving homes in time for Valentine’s Day.
Kanab pet lovers are invited to a Puppy Bowl XX party at Best Friends Roadhouse & Mercantile this Sunday, February 11, from 11:30 am – 2 pm, to watch the event, meet adoptable puppies, kittens , rabbits and guinea pigs available to adopt at no charge, enjoy free snacks, make pet toys and take Puppy Bowl-themed photos.
“The cutest game on television, Puppy Bowl XX is set to reach more people than ever before, giving adoptable dogs and cats across the country a greater chance to find their loving home in the coming weeks,” said Julie Castle, CEO, Best Friends Animal Society.
Adoptions will be free for all animals at Best Friends Animal Sanctuary through Feb. 14, and fees will also be waived at more than 150 of the Best Friends network partner shelters and rescue groups across the country.
For Best Friends, Puppy Bowl XX is extra special as Sonny, a Best Friends New York City alumni will get in on the action as a member of Team Ruff.
Sonny came to Best Friends in New York City from the Humane Society of Elmore County in Alabama, where he and another pup were found wandering as strays. After their wild fling ended, Sonny moved up to NYC where he went to a temporary foster home that would become his loving home. After only three days in his foster home, Sonny was selected to be in Puppy Bowl XX and left for filming.
When he got back from the big game, his foster family decided to make it official.
The Puppy Bowl airs on Sunday, February 11 at 2 pm EST ET/ 11 am PST, and will be simulcast on Animal Planet, Discovery, TBS, truTV, Max and discovery+.
Best Friends Animal Sanctuary is open daily from 8 am – 5 pm, at 5001 Angel Canyon Road, Kanab. Adoptable animals are available to meet in Roxy’s Room at the Welcome Center, Syngin’s Room at Cat World or the Adoption Hub at Puppy Preschool in Dogtown. Stop by the Welcome Center for a map and directions, plus a free cup of hot coffee or tea.
