What time is the Puppy Bowl? Kickoff, date, how to watch, more on Super Bowl for dogs
It's commonly believed that dogs don't understand the concept of time, at least in terms of minutes and hours like humans.
While it's true that they don't walk around wearing thousand-dollar watches or smart ones that track steps, these four-legged animals surely know their way around the clock.
They know when it's time for dinner, to go for a walk, to expect you to get home and so much more. On Super Bowl Sunday, they also know when it's game time.
In a way, the Puppy Bowl is like the "The Bachelor," but without the potential commitment. For the NFL enthusiasts, maybe the scouting combine would suffice as a fine comparison. Regardless, the event provides onlookers with plenty of opportunities to watch their future family members without fear of rejection if they decide to go forward in the adoption process.
The Puppy Bowl is about raising awareness for pet adoption, hoping to find homes for all of them and those who don't participate. As a result, you can be certain that these pups will be ready to go when it's time.

Warner Bros. Discovery Breakup Cues Hollywood's Latest Succession Drama As Two New Companies Take Shape
Monday's news that Warner Bros Discovery is splitting into two companies – one consisting of studios and streaming, the other linear TV networks – has cued up Hollywood's latest succession drama. David Zaslav, having steered WBD as CEO since the 2022 close of the $43 billion merger of Discovery (which he formerly ran) and WarnerMedia, is slated to be CEO of the 'S&S' (Studios & Streamers) entity. Gunnar Wiedenfels, Warner Bros Discovery's CFO, who held the same post at Discovery and has a pure finance background, has been installed as CEO of the Global Networks company. More from Deadline WBD's David Zaslav, Gunnar Wiedenfels Break Down Split That Will See Standalone Companies 'Free And Clear' For M&A Channing Dungey To Remain With Studios & Streaming Post-WBD Split; Few Executives With Dual Responsibilities Make For Clean Break Warner Bros Discovery To Split Into Two Companies, Streaming & Studios And Global Networks The breakup is expected to formally close by the second half of 2026, and already a host of questions are swirling about the long-anticipated maneuver. Among them: Who will sit in the corner office when all is said and done? For each of new company, M&A could provide that answer. During a call with Wall Street analysts about the transaction, Zaslav said the split 'reflects our belief that each company can now go further and faster apart than they can together.' Wiedenfels said both companies will be 'free and clear' for dealmaking as soon as the split is complete – with no waiting period, unlike when a two-year pause was mandated after WarnerMedia and Discovery combined. While Wiedenfels is respected in finance circles, his new gig overseeing the networks company 'would seem to suggest a focus on financial efficiency and potentially a strategic transaction at some point,' TD Cowen analyst Doug Creutz wrote in a note to clients. Guggenheim's Michael Morris also highlighted the appointment, waggishly anointing Wiedenfels 'Top Gunnar.' Prior to Discovery, the German-born Wiedenfels held finance posts at ProSiebenSat and worked in Hamburg for McKinsey & Co. While he never became the pop-culture villain that Zaslav did, especially among genre fans, he nonetheless managed to provoke the creative community in 2022 by dismissing concerns about the scrapping of a Batgirl movie in order to realize a tax benefit. 'Media likes to talk about media, I guess,' he shrugged at the time. Bumping up the CFO to CEO is a different approach from the one taken by Comcast in assembling the management team for Versant, the NBCUniversal cable network holding company about to spin off from Comcast. Mark Lazarus, the prospective CEO, brings significant operational and programming experience to the role, having headed sports and entertainment across linear networks and streaming. Occasionally, CFOs do ascend to the top job in media companies (Chris Winfrey at Charter Communications is one current example), but it's a tougher road in organizations entrenched in Hollywood. The S&S company is even more of a house of intrigue, not surprisingly given that it has prestige assets like HBO, HBO Max and Warner Bros under its roof. While Zaslav has long coveted movie-mogul status, punctuating that ambition by moving into late Paramount boss Robert Evans' former L.A. home, he has also committed a number of unforced errors. Along with authorize the killing of movies like the completed Coyote vs. Acme (which was recently sold after an outcry), he came close to torpedoing Turner Classic Movies. Steven Spielberg, Martin Scorsese and a coalition of other A-list filmmakers convinced him otherwise. And there was that bash he and Graydon Carter threw in Cannes during the 2023 Hollywood writers strike, complete with heavy security. One senior exec who worked for Zaslav at Discovery and WarnerMedia told Deadline the split plan had a certain valedictory quality. 'It feels like this is the start of his retirement, at least from this company,' the exec theorized. 'Would he want to run something that's so much smaller than what he had before?' At 65, Zaslav would appear to have another act in him, but some insiders point to his recalling of longtime lieutenant David Leavy last month from CNN to a senior post at the mother ship was a precursor. If Zaslav were to ever step away (a big if for anyone tuning in to NBA or French Open telecasts over the past month, where Zaslav's embrace of celebrities was on full display), who would be candidates to be No. 1? Two names on the short list would be Casey Bloys and Channing Dungey. Both had prominent roles at the company's upfront presentation to advertisers last month in New York. Bloys also earned unusually fulsome praise from Zaslav on WBD's most recent quarterly earnings call. The top exec called the HBO and Max content chief 'a generational talent' and said HBO's current state is not only healthy but the equal to NBC programming during the fabled 'Must-See TV' era. Dungey, meanwhile, sought to pre-empt any speculation that she could leave the fold by sending an internal memo asserting the opposite. 'I'm thrilled that I will continue to have the privilege of leading WBTVG,' the chairman and CEO of Warner Bros Television Group and U.S. Networks wrote. For Wall Street, there are some bigger clouds on the horizon than the haze-covered org chart. 'The broader question is: Why now?' wondered MoffettNathanson analyst Robert Fishman in a note to clients. 'While we are not shocked that the company chose to split up, the timing of the move is more surprising. The announcement raises questions about external pressures. We note the move follows closely on the heels of S&P's recent downgrade of WBD's debt to below investment grade. WBD's depressed stock price likely also played a role, possibly creating urgency around re-rating the equity story through structural change. Regardless of the precise catalyst, we now must wait formal separation documents and more clarity on capital structure.' Investors grew chilly on the deal as Monday's trading day reached its end. After initially roaring up more than 9%, WBD's already-battered stock fell another 2% to close at $9.77.

Taylor Swift's Safety in Question After Chilling Encounter With Stalker
Taylor Swift's Safety in Question After Chilling Encounter With Stalker originally appeared on Athlon Sports. While pop star Taylor Swift has had plenty to celebrate over the last week after announcing she bought back the master recordings of her first six studio albums, she's also had some difficulties too. Swift, who's dating Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, has spent the bulk of the last four months out of the public eye with her NFL star love interest traveling overseas and taking several offseason vacations together. But it wasn't that long ago that the couple was dealing with a worrying security threat after Kelce's $6 million Leawood, Kansas, home was broken into last year. The incident reportedly left the couple on 'high alert' given Swift's prior history with security issues when she had to cancel several shows during her 'Eras Tour' last year in Austria after it was discovered she was the alleged target of a planned terrorist attack. And now, according to a report from TMZ, Swift has more security issues to worry about after she had multiple chilling run-ins with a stalker recently that prompted her to file a restraining order on Friday. According to documents obtained by TMZ, Swift claims ex-convict Brian Jason Wagner, who's reportedly been harassing her for years, showed up at her house uninvited in May requesting to see her. Wagner has also allegedly changed the address on his driver's license to her home in Los Angeles, and he's even falsely claimed Swift is the mother of his child. Swift asked the court to order Wagner to stay at least 100 yards away from her, her residence, her workplace, and her car. 'Taylor claims Wagner used concerning and threatening language in the communications and tried to divert mail from her residence,' TMZ reported. 'Taylor says Wagner previously showed up to her home at least 3 times in July 2024 ... including one alleged visit where he was allegedly carrying a glass bottle 'that could have been used as a weapon.'' The news prompted several of Swift's fans to hit social media to express their concern over her safety. "I am glad she has Travis to protect her when they are together," one fan wrote. "The amount of potentially harmful weirdos she has in her orbit is scary," another added. "Every single person who stalks her jet, his friends, has GCs passing details on her whereabouts, and feels entitled to her personal all contribute to this sort of thing. And I hope karma finds you swiftly," a third fan exclaimed. "This is exactly why people need to stop posts pictures of Taylor without her knowledge or consent and giving away her location Taylor has all sorts of crazy people after her," one user scoffed. "This is why we don't share her location in real time," remarked another user. Fortunately for Swift, she's spent most of her time this offseason with Kelce, and she's been in Kansas City with him recently as he prepares for the upcoming NFL season. This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jun 9, 2025, where it first appeared.
