How to Watch the National Dog Show 2022 On Thanksgiving Day?

Almost 200 breeds of dogs and over 1,500 puppies are barking their way through the 21st National Dog Show.

Thanksgiving traditions often involve Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade, followed by plenty of food and hours of football. But in recent years, another special piece of entertainment has emerged: The National Dog Show.

The National Dog Show will air on Thursday, November 24 (11/24/2022) at 12 p.m. ET. A broadcast of the show can be found on fuboTV, DirecTV stream, and more live streaming services listed below.

David Frei and John O’Hurley are back to host this year’s show. Claire, the Scottish Deerhound, who won The Best Show Winner for 2020 and 2021, has retired after last year’s competition, so fans and judges will be seeking a new winner this year. Moreover, three new dog breeds will be introduced after the American Kennel Club adds the dogs to its breed registry.

Here’s how to tune in:
