Thanksgiving Dog Show Has Seekonk Flavor

The National Dog Show Presented by Purina will feature Joe, an affenpinscher from Seekonk. It will air on NBC after the Macy's Parade.

If Thanksgiving Day football isn't your scene, perhaps you would prefer to watch a dog show while preparing for the big meal. The National Dog Show Presented by Purina will air on NBC from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m. (right after the Macy's Parade) and features a champion affenpinscher from Seekonk named Joe.

The 5-year-old is the top show dog of all time in his breed in the United States and Europe. He has won more than 80 Best in Show titles. Joe is owned by Seekonk residents Zoila Truesdale and Mieke Cooymans.
