Three HSMO pups will star in this year’s Puppy Bowl on Animal Planet!

We are so excited to announce that three HSMO pups will star in this year’s Puppy Bowl on Animal Planet!

Paris (left) came to the Humane Society of Missouri with her siblings when her owners were moving and couldn’t take her with them. She was just a few weeks old and weighed just three pounds.

Cheesecake (center) came to the HSMO as part of our biggest rescue in more than a decade. He was just 2 months old when he was rescued from this awful hoarding situation.

Boba (right) came to the Humane Society of Missouri with her siblings from an investigation by its Animal Cruelty Task Force. With her sweet personality and pretty markings, her future was bright.

Puppy Bowl XXII will air across Animal Planet, Discovery, TBS, truTV, HBO Max, and discovery+ on starting at 1 p.m. Sunday, February 8. The three-hour canine sports event features a record-breaking 150 rescue dogs from 72 shelters across the United States, Puerto Rico, and the British Virgin Islands. More information on this year’s Puppy Bowl can be found here.

This is HSMO’s fourth year being featured in the Puppy Bowl and third year attending. We can’t wait to cheer on our three pups!
