Animal Planet’s Puppy Bowl VIII: Start Time, Line Up

Puppy Bowl is back for its 8th consecutive year on Animal Planet.

The Puppy Bowl is an all-star, all-adorable canine cast that's ready to mix it up on in the Animal Planet Stadium.

When is Puppy Bowl XIII?

The Puppy Bowl will air on Sunday, February 5th at 3 p.m. EST on Animal Planet.

Some changes are happening this year. Meep the Bird will tweet all the action from inside the stadium. A “piggy pep squad that” will "ham" it up on the sidelines and squeal with delight for their favorite pups. Also, the Puppy Bowl will welcome a new referee, Dan Schachner. He has previously been a television host, commercial actor and announcer. His job will be to make sure the puppies play a safe, clean game.
