Super Bowl Sunday is February 8 – and of course that’s also the day of the annual Puppy Bowl on Animal Planet. This year’s Puppy Bowl features a pair of dogs from Hillsborough, initially fostered by Janice Smith on behalf of Hope Animal Rescue.

On Sunday, Eno River Brewing in Hillsborough is hosting a Puppy Bowl watch party (paw-ty) from 1:00 to 5:00 p.m., with a portion of the proceeds going to benefit Hope Animal Rescue.

Aaron welcomed Janice Smith to the studio to share her behind-the-scenes Puppy Bowl experience and invite everyone to Sunday’s party.
