The National Dog Show, one of the most prestigious dogs shows in America, is one of only six dog shows where the public can interact with show dogs.
The National Dog Show on TV
Featuring over 3,000 dogs in 150 different breeds, the National Dog Show has become a part of the Thanksgiving Day tradition and this year 50 of the top contenders were spotlighted on NBC-TV on Thursday, November 27, 2014 at noon in all time zones following the Thanksgiving Day Parade broadcast.
In 2013, all eyes and ears were on Jewel, an American Foxhound, who took the crown with the top honor of Best in Show.
Traditionally, dogs who are entered in the National Dog Show are judged in groups beginning with the type of breed (such as Irish Setter, Golden Retriever, Poodle.)
Next, the winning dogs earn a place in the next round to compete with all other dogs within their specific group -- such as Toy, Herding, Non-Sporting, Terrier, Sporting, Hound and Working) -- all leading up to picking the top dog as "Best in Show."
Hosted by the Kennel Club of Philadelphia, the National Dog Show is one of the oldest benched dog shows in the U.S., held annually since 1933.
