This year's Puppy Bowl on Animal Planet is going to be a little different than past years.

This year's game will feature the biggest group of special needs dogs ever. Three special needs dogs will be competing. Winston, who is sight-and-hearing impaired and calls Hauser Lake, Idaho home; Doobert who is deaf, will be accompanied by his adoptive family from Troy, VA; then there's Lucky, a three-legged mixed breed from Tennessee who has also already found her forever home.

Remember one of the breakout stars of the Bowl last year? Moose was one of 78 dogs competing in the Puppy Bowl from 34 rescue organizations across 22 states. Moose, a 14-week old male poodle from the Denver Dumb Friend's League, and his brother Bob were the dynamic duo who stole hearts.
