Every Puppy Bowl Athlete Ranked by How Much I Love Them

Sunday was the biggest, most spectacular, and most important event of the year. It was an event of epic proportions in which two teams composed of the most elite competitors faced off against one another to determine who was the very best. There was the defending champion team who had won the previous two years in a row going up against the only team good enough to possibly dethrone them. It was the clash of the titans.

I am of course talking about the Puppy Bowl.

Over 100 puppies from shelters across the United States formed two teams to compete in the 20th Puppy Bowl. While there was only one victorious team — GO TEAM RUFF — every single puppy athlete was a winner just for being them. I love them all and here’s my ranking of all the Puppy Bowl athletes based on just how much I love them.

#1: Bark Purdy

Hailing from the Sacramento SPCA in Sacramento, California Bark Purdy not only wins hearts but unlike his namesake can win the big game as Team Fluff was victorious in this year’s Puppy Bowl.

#1: Cronut

#1: CronutComing from the Shar-Pei Rescue of Virginia in Chesapeake, Virginia, Cronut is just as likely to ask you to work overtime filling out expense reports as he is to ask you to work overtime giving him belly rubs.

#1: Stryker

Stryker comes from Green Dogs Unleashed in Troy, Virginia. He has a fairly busy schedule but assures you that he’ll collie you back as soon as he gets the chance.

#1: Harvey

Coming to us from Pug Nation LA in Gardena, California. Harvey was this year’s recipient of the Underdog Award for his attempts to help his team despite his penchant for napping on the field. Some may say that cost them the game but those people are wrong. Harvey is an inspiration to nappers everywhere.

#1: Vanessa

Hailing from Brandywine Valley SPCA in West Chester, Pennsylvania, Vanessa is a dog who knows what she wants, and what she wants is your heart. Vanessa always gets what she wants.

#1: Francine

From Rescue Dogs Rock in NYC comes Francine. She’s an absolute star. When she’s not scoring touchdowns she’s avoiding the puparazzi trying to disturb her walkies.

#1: Guy Fureri

Hailing from One Tail at A Time in Chicago, IL Guy Fureri is on a mission to conquer Flavortown, USA which coincidentally happens to be anywhere that food may be.

#1: Moosh

This year’s Puppy Bowl MVP comes from Green Dogs Unleashed in Troy, Virginia. Everybody wants to be Moosh’s best friend but more importantly, Moosh wants to be everyone’s best friend.

#1: Beignet

Coming to us from Take Paws Rescue in New Orleans, Louisiana Beignet is a little weiner with big dreams but he knows that anything is pawssible when you put your snoot to it.

#1: Mr. Bean

From the Barky Pines Animal Rescue and Sanctuary in West Palm Beach, Florida comes Mr. Bean. He was born without front legs but that’s just made his back legs stronger. There’s nothing that’s gonna bring Mr. Bean down.

#1: Lady Luck

Lady Luck comes from the Nevada SPCA in Las Vegas, Nevada. Luck may follow her everywhere but we’re the lucky ones for getting to witness her cuteness.

#1: Linus

Hailing from The Ronnie Stanley Foundation in Baltimore, Maryland. Linus won’t be giving you tech tips anytime soon but he will be bringing his blanket with him everywhere he goes while on the hunt for snuggles.

#1: Patrick Mabones

Coming from AHeinz57 Pet Rescue group in De Soto, Iowa, Patrick Mabones is a natural quarterback just like his namesake. Unlike his namesake, he won’t be upstaged by his teammate who’s dating Taylor Sniffed.

#1: Sonny

Hailing from Best Friends Animal Society in New York, NY is Sonny. He is guaranteed to be a ray of sunshine everywhere he goes. Sonny refuses to allow any of his friends to have a ruff day.

#1: Fred

Coming from the Helen Woodward Animal Center in Rancho Santa Fe, California, Fred would love nothing more than to curl on your lap and watch The Muttrix. Haters will say he’s not part teddy bear but with Maurey Povich no longer around doing DNA tests, it can’t be proven that he isn’t.

#1: Levi

Levi hails from Green Dogs Unleashed in Troy, Virginia. He is the largest pup ever to be in Puppy Bowl and that’s because it’s hard to fit so much majesty in one dog.

#1: Wilson

Wilson is the only companion you’d ever want while stranded on an island.

#1: Agatha

Who’s responsible for all these melted hearts? It was her all along.

#1: Sweetpea
