Tickets are on sale now for the 11th annual AKC Meet the Breeds, which returns to New York City’s Jacob Javits Center on January 25 and 26, 2020. The American Kennel Club (AKC) and The International Cat Association (TICA) bring this two-day educational event to New York to give attendees the unique opportunity to meet and play with hundreds of dogs and cats all while learning about responsible pet ownership and which breed(s) is best for their lifestyle straight from the experts.

“We’re very excited for the 11th annual AKC Meet the Breeds event,” said Gina DiNardo, executive secretary of the American Kennel Club. “We can’t wait for the public to see all of the demonstrations we have planned and meet the hundreds of dogs and cats that will be on hand. It’s the perfect opportunity for people to do their research and find what breed best fits their lifestyle.”

The 2020 extravaganza, the largest of its kind in the United States, will feature exciting demonstrations by New York City K-9 Police Officers, sponsored by the US Police Canine Association, as well as popular sports, including AKC Agility and AKC Scent Work, presented by the Port Chester Obedience Training Club and other groups.
