[Dailydrool] two Puppy Bowls

[turnq007 at umn.edu]

Just a reminder for those of you who like an alternative to the Football 
Super Bowl. This year there are at least two versions of the Puppy Bowl to 
watch and get your basset fix. There is the Animal Planet station Puppy 
Bowl starting at 3pm and the Twin Cities (TC) Puppy Bowl which will be on 
the web http://twincitiespuppybowl.com/ . The TC puppy bowl was filmed in 
Minnesota and two Basset Buddies Rescue (BBR) foster dogs were selected to 
participate. Little Obi-wan was born only a few weeks after his mom Pauline 
arrived in foster care. Pauline was among 199 dogs rescued in ND from 
terrible conditions. Obi-wan is a striking basset mix. He has a coal black 
coat with a touch of white. Fred, the second BBR representative is 12 yrs 
old. He was chosen to be one of the senior referees. Fred came into rescue 
when his senior owner could no longer care for him. All the puppies and 
dogs in the TC bowl are from rescues. Obi-wan just got adopted last weekend 
and Fred is in a very loving foster home. Please cast a vote for Obi-wan as 
MVP to help raise funds for BBR, the basset rescue serving Wisconsin, 
Minnesota, and northern Illinois.
