By now, everyone should be gearing up for the big game. No, not that game! The 2015 Puppy Bowl of course!

Animal Planet‘s Puppy Bowl XI will air on February 1.

It is time to get pumped! Check out this sneak peek of the 2015 game! Fantasy players can also draft their dream team of puppies here!

We at Pet Age have an in… with two different Puppy Bowl contenders!

Both these puppies hail from Florida Little Dog Rescue Group based in St. Cloud, Fla. Florida Little Dog Rescue rehabilitates  unwanted, abused and abandoned little dogs and places them in loving and responsible homes to live out their lives as cherished family members.

Two of those homes are with our very own account manager Brianne Molnar and our very dear friend Michelle Maskaly!

Brianne adopted Rosie on October 2014 and Michelle adopted Team Ruff member Bubba (who has since been renamed Maddux) at the same time. Both pups will be competing in this year’s big game!
