The Puppy Bowl will be returning for its 19th year on Super Bowl 2023. Here's what viewers can expect from these adoptable canines, according to Puppy Bowl Referee Dan Schachner.
Puppy Bowl Referee Dan Schachner holds a puppy named Hattie, who is from the Muddy Paws shelter in New York City.
Some of the puppies are hearing or vision impaired while others are missing a left or have a cleft palate, according to Schachner."Don't overlook those special needs dogs because [when you] watch them on Puppy Bowl, you could see them just hang out just as easily with any ‘able-bodied dogs,’" Schachner told Fox News Digital.
Schachner has been a referee for the Puppy Bowl for 12 years and he’s seen puppy participants get adopted on set during and after the game.
