Washington’s most valuable puppy is getting ready to take on the country’s greatest sporting event.
Baguette from Seattle Humane will head to the Puppy Bowl in less than two weeks, the shelter announced on Facebook.
This year’s Puppy Bowl will have a record-breaking 150 dogs from 72 shelters across the U.S., Puerto Rico, and the British Virgin Islands, Entertainment Weekly reported. It will also spotlight 15 special needs dogs.
Baguette will be defending the coveted “Lombarky” trophy alongside 60 other teammates on Team Fluff.

Baguette found her forever home before the game even aired. While filming in New York, a production staffer shared photos of the pup with a friend, who adopted her on the spot, according to KIRO 7.
Seattle Humane said that while Baguette is spoken for, other superstars are still available at the shelter.
For now, Washington’s newest celebrity is resting up before her big debut.
The Puppy Bowl will be on Animal Planet at 11 a.m. PST Feb. 8. Before the Super Bowl, the Puppy Bowl XXII Kickoff Show will air at 10 a.m. PST.
