Ahead of tonight's big game, News 13 had a few visitors from another competition, puppies.

Members of the Florida Little Dog Rescue stopped by the studio with four local puppies that will be featured in Sunday’s Puppy Bowl on Animal Planet.

For Team Fluff we had Meka, a 14-week-old Cava-Tzu and Lilo a 14-week-old Japanese Chin, and on Team Ruff we had Rixton, a 15-week-old Shetland Sheepdog and Stitch, a 14-week-old Japanese Chin.

The goal of the Puppy Bowl is to make people aware of all the great dogs availabele at rescue shelters and in need of loving homes.

A total of 88 puppies from 44 shelters across the country were drafted for the event.

Potential owners need to know that adopting is a commitment.

 Florida Little Dog Rescue says each dog is different, but mostly they just “need love.”
