The annual Puppy Bowl isn’t far away, but with the Winter Olympics taking place this February, Discovery has announced Puppy Bowl Presents: The Winter Games, a new special event set to take place on Feb. 3 that will see a group of man’s best friends competing for the gold.

Puppy Bowl Presents: The Winter Games will feature five teams of trainers and their dogs competing in a series of dog-friendly winter games, including the Freestyle Challenge, Trick Tails and the Agility Showdown that takes place on a winterized obstacle course.

The special will be hosted by actress and comedian Kym Whitley, while the panel of judges will include 2014 Olympic silver-medalist Gus Kenworthy, dog trainer Travis Borsen and international trick dog trainer Sara Carson, who are tasked with awarding the gold, silver and bronze medals as well as a $5,000 prize that will be donated to the winner’s favorite animal charity.

Of course, the real stars of the show are going to be the talented dogs. The contestants for Puppy Bowl Presents: The Winter Games includes Blaze, an Australian Shepherd; Zoey, a Mutt mix; Hanabi, a Husky/Whippit mix; Chabis, a Chihuahua; and Mistricks, a Mutt mix.
