For the first time in its 137-year history, the two-day show on Feb. 11-12 will be held at two venues. In addition to Madison Square Garden, it will be extended to Piers 92/94 on the Hudson River, so dog lovers can get up close and meet their favorite breeds.
“The main change is that we are now in two venues, instead of one. We are having our day portion of the judging, which is the breed judging, at Piers 92 and 94 on the west side of town,” said David Frei, the show’s director of communications.
“The breed winners from there will come on down to the Garden for the evening portion, which is groups and best in show,” he added.
