Good luck getting your Tinder profile to be as cute as these.


The Puppy Bowl, that annual rite of Super Bowl season, is leveling up its cute factor by creating profiles on Tinder for its starting lineup.

The dating app partnered with Pledgeling , a site that connects people with charitable causes, to create dating profiles for the canines from Animal Planet's Puppy Bowl XIV.

Swipe right on one of the pup profiles and you can donate to the ASPCA (American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals) to help shelter pets across the country. (You can also donate by texting PUPPY to 707070.

One of those in the starting lineup with a profile is Sunny, a Staffordshire terrier/Rottweiler mix, from All But Furgotten Animal Rescue in Irwin.


The profiles will be up from Jan. 22 through Feb. 4, the day of the big game.

As for the Puppy Bowl itself, that airs at 3 p.m. on Super Bowl Sunday. It's #TeamRuff vs. #TeamFluff for the Chew.com "Lombarky" trophy.

Sunny won't be the only dog at the Bowl to represent Western Pennsylvania. Two other pups from All But Furgotten will be part of this year's teams.

Bailey (along with Sunny) was part of nine puppies rescued from a hoarding situation in a neighboring county, and Frankie, a husky, came from a southern shelter.

"We submitted their stories along with literally hundreds of other shelters across the United States," said All But Furgotten board member and secretary Pam Kearns of Irwin. "We were thrilled when we found out last week."

Also on the field will be Aquaman, a treeing walker coonhound adopted out of Animal Friends in Allegheny County.
