Meet the Breeds, hosted by the American Kennel Club (AKC) and Cat Fanciers’ Association (CFA) will return to the Jacob Javits Center in New York City on October 16th and 17th, 2010. Last year’s 36,000 attendees enjoyed 200 individually decorated official breed booths that allowed dog and cat lovers to interact with dogs, cats, puppies and kittens and learn about their history and unique attributes directly from the experts; 100 vendor booths offered every imaginable product for pets and their owners; and five ongoing demonstration rings featured law enforcement K9s, grooming, agility, obedience and an interactive ‘Cat Idol’ showcase and more. The event was also a big hit with the press, generating more than 475 million media impressions. Come join us as we introduce them to the wonderful world of dogs and cats, in the media capital of the world. View more 2010 details.
