New York, NY – In honor of Meet the Breeds, a group of Italian breeds, their owners and AKC staffers marched up 5th Avenue during the 2010 Columbus Day Parade in New York City. Participating breeds included the Bergamasco, Bracco Italiano, Cane Corso, Cirneco dell'Etna, Lagotto Ramagnolo, Neapolitan Mastiff and Spinone Italiano!
