Even if you aren’t a sports fan, there’s one reason you might still love Super Bowl Sunday: the Puppy Bowl! Every year, Animal Planet airs its own big game by hosting two teams of adoptable puppies to run around on a mini football field with the main goal of being adorable. This year, there’s an extra-special reason to get excited about SBLVI because Grounds & Hounds Coffee Co. has just teamed up with Animal Planet to release a limited-edition Puppy Bowl Blend. As the official fuel for Puppy Bowl XVIII, this coffee blend is the perfect way to start your day before watching Team Fluff and Team Ruff face off.
Not only is the packaging of this Puppy Bowl Blend so cute, but Grounds & Hounds has ensured what’s inside is just as special. The 100-percent Arabica blend is made of their highest-grade beans from Guatemala and Papua New Guinea. The silky-smooth medium roast was their most popular release last year and is designed to be the perfect winter morning cup of coffee (enjoyed alongside your furry best friend of course!). It has notes of caramel and berries when you first take a sip, with dark chocolate, toasted pecan, and French vanilla flavors following. It’ll instantly make you feel warm, perfect for staying cozy on the couch all Sunday watching the two biggest games of the year.
And, to make this package even sweeter, each bag comes with a choice of bandana for your pup. Your pooch can show their loyalty for Team Ruff or Team Fluff with these celebratory bandanas — you can use them for next year’s game too!
To really prep for the day, Grounds & Hounds also has the Puppy Bowl Bundle. It includes a bag of coffee, a bandana, and a plush football so your pup can play along during the game.
When you buy from Grounds & Hounds Coffee Co., you’re also supporting animal rescue initiatives and organizations across the country. The coffee company donates a whopping 20 percent of its proceeds to rescue efforts to support volunteers and the pets they save every day.
Giving to a good cause, enjoying delicious coffee, and watching puppies play for hours? Sounds like a winning day to us!
My Super Energetic Pup Tried Multiple Dog Beds and This Is the Only One That Keeps Her Calm and Comfy

What’s it like raising a 1-year-old Lab? Well, my pup, Lady, is gorgeous, super loving, funny… and her energy levels are unparalleled. I’m talking three hourlong walks a day and a ball-throwing session to cap things off. I do my best to keep up with Lady’s insatiable ways, especially since she needs the exercise, but I do tend to get frustrated that she hates alone time. At home, she’ll lay at my feet, pace around me in circles, or try to hop into my lap. I’ve purchased multiple dog beds — plush, firm, elevated, round — but she just never seemed to want to relax. Just as I was about to retire any hope of personal space, Lady got the chance to try the Dog Bed by Tuft & Needle, and it was a complete game changer..
The bed — which earned a spot on our Best List — is constructed with polyurethane foam that mimics the brand’s human mattresses and is topped with a polyester fiber-fill pillow that’s cozy but never lumps or sags. The entire bed is covered in an uber-durable canvas-like fabric that comes in three modern colors: Charcoal, Desert, and Rust. Believe me, this bed is no eyesore. Even better? It’s machine washable. Just zip off the cover and toss it in the wash.
What I love most about this bed, though, is its versatility. When the pillow insert is attached to the foam base (by heavy-duty sailing rope, which has already withstood much nibbling — thanks, Lady), the bed is a supportive, soft-centered haven with a firm outer edge. When the central pillow is removed, Lady slips and slides around the base, using the roomy concavity to play with her favorite dog toys. The pillow insert can also be rolled up to take it on the go (it has a rubbery grip on the bottom to keep it secure), so Lady always has a place to call her own, no matter where we are..
Truthfully, these days, I can count on Lady being in her bed whether it’s for playtime, an afternoon nap, or a full night’s sleep. I can tell she feels secure and comfy in her own little spot. Watching her enjoy it this much might just make me have to look into getting a Tuft & Needle human-bed for myself!
Your Dog Needs This Viral In-Shower Scalp Massager Just as Much as You Do

Bath time is totally easy for some pups and a total nightmare for others. Maybe it’s fun for them and a mess for you, or miserable for them and something you dread to make them do. Regardless, speeding up the bath time process is beneficial in a lot of cases and this little tool helps it happen. The Pet Bath and Massage Brush by Hertzko has over 1,000 rave reviews on Amazon from owners of super-shedders and fussy bathers — even pet parents with arthritis themselves. The best news? It’s 40 percent off right now on Amazon.
The Hertzko Pet Brush, much like the viral in-shower scalp massager for humans, lathers products quickly, stimulates the skin, and releases trapped hair fallout. Ideal for shedding pets and those with thick hairs or dense coats, this pet brush releases shedding hair that even a dry brush can’t pick up. It also breaks up the build-up of skin cells and grime that can settle in the fur and on the skin, resulting in a thorough clean and a much more comfortable drying process (and a much happier post-bath pup in general).
This bath brush is also a grooming hero, loosening and releasing knots and matted fur (especially with the help of a good detangling shampoo) while also massaging any sore or irritated skin. One reviewer loves the design of the brush, raving that because “each of the brush tips has four rounded nibs that help the brushing and cleaning process,” their dog really enjoys it as well. It helps that “this brush is significantly heavier and larger than others [they’ve] tried,” making it easier to hold on to and handle while massaging.
Easy to hold, comfortable to use, and the pets are fans. What else could you want? Oh yeah — maybe 40 percent off, which is on now on Amazon and won’t last long.
