PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- As we continue counting down to the Super Bowl, one extra cute competition is also ready to return this year. The Puppy Bowl is back on Sunday.

Dogs from the Philadelphia region will be featured during the 20th annual event.

Cronut stopped by at the CBS Philadelphia studio Thursday morning, along with owners, Patty and Tony Sevick of Cherry Hill.

The Shar Pei was a rescue from the Shar-Pei Rescue of Virginia in Chesapeake and is a member of Team Fluff with Dominic, Bertie and Sasha. As a lover of snuggles, Cronut is in the Pupularity Playoffs and could win "Most Pupular."

The family had Cronut since he was a puppy and he is now officially adopted as part of the family. They have two other Shar Pei dogs in the family.
