Dr. Elisa Mazzaferro, Provides the Puppy Bowl VI Starting Line-up with a Clean Bill of Health
Some very special rookies took the field with a winning combination of tackles, fumbles and even a few tumbles, for their shot at the end zone —or a tug toy—in Animal Planet’s Puppy Bowl VI. This annual canine battle was back as a new pack of pups mixed it up on the grand gridiron of Animal Planet Stadium. Plus, for the first time in Puppy Bowl history, the sidelines were hopping with the addition of spirited bunny rabbit cheerleaders!
Before the rambunctious rescue pups could compete in the ultimate showdown they received a clean bill of health from Dr. Mazzaferro, who practices at an AAHA-accredited hospital. Annual wellness exams at a veterinary hospital accredited by AAHA can catch problems early and help keep your pet healthy.
