Flora is a Staffordshire Terrier and Boxer mix who came to Maine in August from Georgia. 

Flora made her big trip to New York City last fall to compete in the Puppy Bowl that will air on Animal Planet on Feb. 3 ahead of Super Bowl LIII. 

Officials at ARLGP say Flora, "dazzled the crowd with her quick moves and fancy paw-work, making her an official Team Fluff starting pup-ster." 

This is the second year in a row that a puppy from ARLGP has gone to Animal Planet's Puppy Bowl.
