In 2020 the dogs are taking their talents to the Javits Center in New York City when The American Kennel Club (AKC®) hosts its annual AKC Meet The Breeds® on January 25-26th, 2020. This family-friendly, educational extravaganza gives animal lovers the unique opportunity to meet and play with hundreds of adorable dogs while learning about responsible pet ownership.
“We are very happy to return to the Javits Center to host AKC Meet The Breeds®,” said AKC Executive Secretary Gina DiNardo. “The Javits Center provides a larger space for us to create a one of a kind experience, engage with the public and gives dog lovers more opportunities to learn from breed experts representing their National club and their dogs.”
The 2020 event marks the 11th year for AKC Meet The Breeds®. Once again, The International Cat Association® (TICA®) joins the festivities to give animal lovers the unique opportunity to meet and play with hundreds of adorable dogs and cats while learning about responsible pet ownership and canine good citizenship. Attendees will be able to interact with almost 200 breeds of dogs and cats in elaborately decorated booths with elements from the breeds’ history creatively displayed as well as opportunities to learn from experts about each breed in attendance. There will also be numerous, fun demonstrations both days.
