Puppy Bowl Lineup, Time, Date and Where to Watch (VIDEO)

Feb 01, 2013 03:11 PM EST

The Puppy Bowl kicks off, or runs off, on Sunday right before the big game known as the Super Bowl. Though all the hype revolves around the football game, these pups will do their best to attract attention and in the end, one will be crowned winner.

It's already been nine years since the first Puppy Bowl was hosted. Check out the highlights from that matchup.

Don't know if the narrator is being sarcastic or sincere at the end when saying it became a phenomenon, but the Puppy Bowl has gained popularity around the country. Dog fans have more reason to hate Michael Vick and they have something to look forward to on Super Bowl Sunday.

As you can see, Max was the first dog entered into the Puppy Bowl Hall of Fame after winning the game's first MVP honor.

Now check out the schedule for Puppy Bowl IX. 

Date: Sunday, Feb. 3

Time: 3 p.m. ET/12 p.m. PT

Where to Watch: Animal Planet (check your local listings)
