Animal Planet Puppy Bowl: EG's Paddington Takes The Field Sunday

East Greenwich Animal Protection League is celebrating Paddington's upcoming Puppy Bowl appearance on Sunday.

EAST GREENWICH, RI—It may be Super Bowl LII for Tom Brady, but for Animal Planet fans, the big game is Puppy Bowl XIV. Sunday, at 3 p.m. East Greenwich's own puppy, Paddington, will take the field for a chance to make her mark in sports' history. It's been a big weekend for the little dog. She also participated in the run-up to the big game and had her portrait done by Paddington Bear illustrator R.W. Alley. A rescue from a high-kill shelter in the South, Paddington now has a forever home and a new name. On Puppy Bowl Sunday, her fans will be watching from 44 Worthington Road, Cranston, where the East Greenwich Animal Protection League has a party starting at 1 p.m. Tickets to the fundraiser cost $5 ($10 for the family package).
