INDIANAPOLIS — Did you watch the Big Game on Sunday? In case you missed it, Team Fluff defeated Team Ruff 73-69 in the 18th annual Puppy Bowl.

Gumdrop, a 10-week-old shepherd-husky mix, was Indiana's only representative at the Puppy Bowl — and she was one of 11 puppies and three kittens available for adoption!

Gumdrop, along with her seven brothers and sisters, have all found forever homes. The puppies were available to be adopted Tuesday and were all spoken for by Wednesday afternoon.

"Gumdrop was the first of the litter to be adopted, with several of her siblings adopted very shortly after," said David Horth, IndyHumane CEO. "It’s great to see these puppies find forever homes so quickly."

And yes, Gumdrop's siblings were given fun, candy-themed names just like her: Jaw Breaker, Jolly Rancher, Milk Dud, Nerds, Pop Rocks, Skittles and Taffy.

According to her bio for the Puppy Bowl, Gumdrop is described as "super spunky with lots of personality, and like every puppy, loves to play and play and play. Gumdrop loves squeaky toys and playing with her siblings ... After she's worn herself out from playtime, Gumdrop loves to find a comfy spot to nap."

IndyHumane, located at 7929 N. Michigan Road on the city's north side, was one of 14 organizations that featured a current adoptable pet in exclusive segments during the Puppy Bowl.
