Orphans of the Storm Puppy Bowl- Hawthorn Mall Adoption Showcase
This Sunday 2/8, we’re hosting the only Puppy Bowl where everyone wins—especially if you leave with a new best friend.
From 11am–3pm and our Hawthorn Mall Adoption Showcase, our all-star lineup of adoptable puppies will be taking the field (okay, the meet-and-greet area) and they’re ready to steal hearts, not touchdowns.
Expect:
✨ Maximum cuteness
✨ Zero penalties
✨ Unlimited tail wags
✨ The best halftime show: puppy kisses
Come for the Puppy Bowl vibes, stay because you fell in love.
No tickets required—just bring your heart.
