The National Dog Show has been a staple of Thanksgiving Day for two decades. This year, it features three new breeds: the Bracco Italiano, the Russian toy and the mudi.
David Frei, a host and analyst for the National Dog Show for over 20 years, explains why these three breeds were selected to enter the competition this year:"They're finally recognized by the AKC for competition in the conformation dog shows because they have enough of them in this country. They have a geographic distribution, and they have a parent club that watches over them.
"Because the purpose of a dog show really is for the education of the public," Frei says."And maybe people can find out about a dog that fits their lifestyle and is right for their family." The National Dog Show takes place every year the weekend before Thanksgiving. This year's show was filmed this past weekend and will air on Thanksgiving Day at 12 p.m. locally in all time zones.Copyright 2022 NPR.
