“Puppy Bowl” Comes to SF
Broncos vs. Panthers? Forget that… What about Schnauzers vs. Boxers?
Animal Planet’s “Puppy Bowl” is coming to San Francisco during Super Bowl week and you can watch it live in person from February 4-7, 2016 at Gott’s Roadside in the Ferry Building.
While the actual Puppy Bowl XII broadcast was filmed in New York, the Puppy Bowl Cafe will be in SF. It’s a 24-foot mock football field built at the Ferry Building and run continuously for four days with adorable adoptable puppies from local shelters battling it out for toys in a “scrimmage” – with an Animal Planet referee to make sure everyone plays nice.

The puppies in this San Francisco version are all adoptable dogs that come from the Animal Care & Control San Francisco shelter and the East Bay SPCA.
Want to adopt one of the Puppy Bowl Cafe competitors?
- East Bay SPCA – Starting February 7 you’ll be able to adopt the pups that were featured at Puppy Bowl Cafe at the East Bay SPCA in Oakland or Dublin. Adoption fees are $150 which is 10% discount from regular adoption fees. Adoptions are done out of the SPCA facilities (and not on at the Ferry Building) to make the transition easier.
- Animal Care and Control SF – Pups will still be playing at Puppy Bowl Cafe on Sunday and then will be available for adoption at 1200 15th Street in SF starting Monday February 8th at Noon. Adoption fees for puppies are normally $175 but for Super Bowl 50 it’s 50% off ($87.50). The Adoption center is opening Noon to 6pm daily (until 7pm on Wednesdays.)
Please note that originally we were told the adoptions would be free of charge, but that we have confirmed that adoption fees will be required.
Meet Minnie & Max The Pugs
Our favorite little pugs will be at the Ferry Building. February 4th at 11am for the opening of Puppy Bowl Cafe – and you can meet them! Sorry, you can’t adopt these knuckleheads.
Animal Planet is making donations to the two shelters to help cover the adoption costs and $1 from special menu items at Gott’s will also go toward covering costs.
