Over the last few years, watching “The National Dog Show Presented by Purina” on NBC after the Thanksgiving Day Parade on Thanksgiving has become a tradition. While the turkey is cooking, the cranberries are chilling and the pies are baking, we have the TV on so we can see all the beautiful dogs in all shapes as sizes as they strut across the floor in Philadelphia.
Hosted again this year by John O’Hurley and expert analyst David Frei, this year’s show will be a little different: Viewers will now get a chance to participate and vote in their own “Viewers Choice Best in Show!”
Once the remaining seven Best In Show competitors have been selected, the television audience will be able to vote online at dogshow.NBCSports.com or by texting the word “DOG” to 51515 on their cell phones. Viewers will also be encouraged to vote for their favorite group winner throughout the day.
The National Dog Show airs right after the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade on NBC from noon to 2:00 p.m. in all time zones.
The television broadcast will also be available online after 2 p.m. EST on Hulu.com, a popular online video service that offers hit TV shows, movies and clips.
