[KellytheBelly]

Watching this on the big screen (with rabbit ears), right now. We've made this part of our Thanksgiving tradition (3rd Annual), because... It's hilarious! The host, John O'Hurley, is awesome.

NBC's Thanksgiving Day special, "The National Dog Show Presented by Purina®," will crown one of the sport's great show dogs as Best in Show on Thurs. Nov. 23, 2023, bringing canine competition and holiday family entertainment to millions for the 22nd straight year.

The coverage of the Kennel Club of Philadelphia event airs from 12-2 p.m. in all time zones following the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade and before football-watching takes over the day. The broadcast is seen annually by an estimated total audience of over 20 million in what has become an American holiday tradition. An encore presentation will also air in primetime on Sat., Nov. 26, from 8-10 p.m. ET/PT (7 p.m. CT/MT; check local listings).

Coverage of the National Dog Show airs from 12-2 p.m. in all time zones following the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.

The National Dog Show Presented by Purina is hosted by John O'Hurley ("Seinfield," "Dancing with the Stars") and expert analyst David Frei, one of America's foremost experts on all things canine. Olympics host and tennis analyst Mary Carillo joins as sideline reporter for a broadcast.

Who will the winner be?

*drum roll*
