The three-hour event will be simulcast across Animal Planet, Discovery, TBS, truTV, Max, and Discovery+, offering viewers a chance to witness the adorable antics of these furry athletes. Among the participating pups is a heartwarming team representing Pennsylvania, affectionately dubbed 'Team Ruff.'
