The 15th edition of the Puppy Bowl, a beloved Super Bowl alternative, is set to be its largest yet.

The competition remains fierce yet endearing, with Team Fluff defending their title from last year's close 68-66 victory.

These segments are designed to tug at heartstrings and encourage viewers to consider adopting their own furry companions.
