Two rescues from right here in the Shreveport-Bossier City, LA area are competing for Team Ruff in this Sunday's 'Puppy Bowl' on Animal Planet!

Once again, Ninna Lopez and the team at Ninna's Road to Rescue in Benton, LA are showing the world what they do right here in our area to rehome pups in need. They've had three pups participate in the Puppy Bowl in the past and this year they have two more!

Meet Button and Gilbert!

Button is pictured on the left above and Gilbert is on the left. Aren't they adorable? Both pups got to fly to New York to film for their big game in October and here are some of the pictures from their adventure!

In fact, one of the folks working on the set while they were filming thought Button was so cute, they adopted him. He's now called Hudson and lives in Ohio.

I wasn't able to find out if Gilbert is still available for adoption. However, before we go any further, I should point out that Ninna has plenty of adorable pups just like Button and Gilbert who would love to meet you, so click here if you're interested in adopting, volunteering, or donating.

Not only will you be able to see Button and Gilbert this Sunday at 1 pm CST on Animal Planet and streaming on Discovery+ during the Puppy Bowl competing for the 'Lombarky' trophy, but you also don't want to miss the Kitty Halftime Show.

Geaux Button and Gilbert! We can't wait to see you show your stuff Sunday and hopefully, you'll find it in your heart to support Ninna Lopez and her terrific organization Ninna's Road to Rescue. Every little bit counts!
