against animal cruelty, and has participated in Westminster Kennel Club Dog
Show events.
Held annually in Manhattan since 1877, this highly anticipated dog show
was conceived by a group of “sporting gentlemen” who regularly met at the
long-closed Westminster Hotel. They pooled their resources to purchase a
kennel and canine training grounds, and ultimately talked about staging a
dog show.
The four-day show was originally held at Gilmore’s Garden (which predated
Madison Square Garden) and brought out more than 1,200 canine entrants.
The event quickly became a cultural institution and a magnet for those who
wanted to showcase their purebred dogs. Surprisingly, the governing
American Kennel Club did not exist until seven years after the event was
established. Since 1907, the Best in Show award at Westminster has been
the highest honor a canine could achieve worldwide.
