Do you love football -- and do you love your pet? Well, you may have to set your DVR to either the adorable canine or feline Super Bowl showdown this Sunday, in what's affectionately called the Puppy Bowl or the Kitten Bowl.

With more attention being dedicated to lovable pets on TV and online these days, there's a greater pet lover population to tap into, including an increasing Latino population in the U.S. Therefore, if you're a Latino pet lover, would you be more likely to tune into the Puppy Bowl or the Kitten Bowl?

According to statistics, the impact of race on pet ownership breaks down to -- 46 percent of all households own dogs, this number is 51 percent for Caucasians, 53 percent for Hispanics and 24 percent for African-Americans.

When it comes to felines -- 31 percent of households have cats, 36 percent for Caucasians, 34 percent for Hispanics and 14 percent for African-Americans. Therefore, it would appear that Latinos would be more likely to own dogs -- and be more likely to tune into the Puppy Bowl.

The stats also showed that "African-Americans seem to be less likely to own pets because they are more likely to live in densely populated urban areas with less room for pets; Caucasians are more likely to own larger dogs than the other groups; and Hispanics are more likely to enjoy the fun part of pet ownership-- they buy more toys for their pets, take more photographs and take their pet with them more often than other ethnic groups." Say cheese, or better yet, queso!

Mexican-American dog trainer, Cesar Millan also might be more inclined to tune into the Puppy Bowl as well. He's a self-taught expert who's widely known for his television series Dog Whisperer with Cesar Millan, broadcast in more than eighty countries worldwide from 2004 to 2012. He also stars in Cesar 911, which premieres Friday, Mar. 7, on NatGeo WILD.
