Steve Dale and David Frei discuss ‘doodle dogs’ and 23 years of the Thanksgiving Day National Dog Show presented by Purina

Steve Dale's Pet World

David Frei, renowned broadcaster of dog shows, has now broadcast 50 national dog shows, and 23 years of the National Dog Show presented by Purina on Thanksgiving Day on NBC (and now also on Peacock) at noon following Macy’s Parade. Frei discusses the so-called ‘doodle dogs.’ Also, animal-assisted activities, and how therapy dogs go into hospitals, libraries, schools, nursing homes and more. Not all too long ago, it was a challenge to sell the notion to any facility and today there aren’t enough dogs to fill the need. As Frei says, “A faithful friend is the medicine of life.”
