Team Ruff and Team Fluff face off once again and they are (surprise!) the cutest.
Animal Planet’s Puppy Bowl is a beloved part of any Super Bowl Sunday and say what you will about the Eagles and Patriots, this is certainly the most adorable lineup of players you will see today.
This year, all of the puppies come from areas that were affected by natural disasters in 2017, though some of the shelters they landed at are in different cities. We’ll learn more about the pups as the Puppy Bowl broadcast continues, but for now, you can keep watching their unbelievably cute player intros on repeat.
Meet Team Fluff and Team Ruff.

On Team Fluff, we have:
- Lila, a 15-week-old, Chihuahua/English Toy Spaniel from Pennsylvania who “loves to sneak extra puptarts after goat yoga” and loves the camera. Also described as a cuddle machine.
- Blueberry Pie, a miniature poodle/chihuahua from Brooklyn whose favorite movie is The Devil Wears Pawda and “quickly gets tart” when she’s on the gridiron.
- Floridian puppy Joy is a miniature poodle as well and she wears a bow.
On Team Ruff, meet:
- J-Paw, miniature poodle and Chihuahua from New York, and we’ll spare you all the Jennifer Lawrence puns in her intro.
- “Next up is Petree, he make look bashful, but once he warms up, this literal dish of cuteness will spread the love.” (Ummm. What? Who wrote that? Petree is still a super cute Pomeranian / Pekingese mix though.)
- Morris, a Pomeranian, with no doubt the best name.
