Hailee Steinfeld and Josh Allen’s romance continues to be paw-fect.

Steinfeld, 27, and Allen, 28, were spotted at the first annual Shakir Family Pet Adoption Event in Buffalo, New York on Saturday, October 12. In social media footage, the pair were seen cuddling puppies and mingling with other attendees. At one point, Steinfeld even snapped a picture of her boyfriend holding a furry companion.

The actress and the Buffalo Bills quarterback both dressed casually for the event, twinning in baseball caps. Steinfeld paired her hat with a white sweater, while Allen donned a green sweatshirt.

While it is unknown if the couple adopted a new pet, they are both dog owners. Allen is a doting dog dad to Sky, while Steinfeld has pups Martini and Brando.

Saturday’s event was hosted by Allen’s Bills teammate, wide receiver Khalil Shakir, and wife Sayler Shakir.

“So proud of this man for using his platform for good. Giving back to the community,” Sayler wrote via Instagram Story on Saturday, sharing a photo of her husband holding a dog. “Providing a space for pups to find a forever home. I love you and I’m forever proud of the man you are.”

While Sayler has been cheering for Khalil on the football field since they started dating in 2021, Steinfeld is a newfound NFL fan. She was first linked to Allen last year before she began attending his Bills games. (Steinfeld and Allen went Instagram official in July, sharing pics from their joint trip to Paris.)

“Football season is back which means a few things. A) I get to watch my favorite person continue to make NFL history every week (go off 17),” Steinfeld wrote in a September issue of her “Beau Society” newsletter. “B) We’re just a few weeks away from drastic temperature drops (California girl speaking) where you’ll find me drinking hot chocolate bundled in vintage Bills gear.”

Steinfeld even attended Allen’s Bills home opener last month.

“I spent most of the game thinking about how lucky I am to get a front-row seat to the magic that is JA17, the entire Bills team and the stadium energy,” she gushed in her newsletter. “The people who make up Bills Mafia are second to none.”

While the Dickinson alum and Allen often keep their relationship private, a source previously gave Us insight into their bond.

“They laugh a ton when they’re together [and] are always smiling,” the insider exclusively told Us Weekly in June 2023, noting Steinfeld and Allen weren’t “putting any pressure or unrealistic expectations” on their romance progression.
