AKC Meet The Breeds Brings Puppy Paradise to Tampa!
The American Kennel Club is bringing hundreds of dogs to the Tampa Convention Center for the Meet The Breeds Tour. This two day event on April 23rd and 24th is an opportunity for people of all ages to play with dogs and learn more about caring for different breeds.
Presented by the American Kennel Club, AKC Meet The Breeds Tour is a national tour offering cities a unique and interactive canine extravaganza. With the goal of helping individuals and families determine what kind of dog is right for them, the event allows people to interact with hundreds of dogs while learning about the care and history of each breed.
However, Meet The Breeds is far more than just a furry meet and greet. Additionally to playtime, there will be multiple demonstrations showing the athletic ability of each breed. Plus, they will have performances from AKC Trick Dog, the Central Florida Disc Dogs, and a special demo by the Florida Urban Search & Rescue Teams. You can even take a run on the doggy obstacle courses themselves, complete with photo ops.

Everywhere you look, you’ll see dogs, whether it’s your favorite breed or one you’ve never heard of before. I hope we can introduce the city to their new favorite dog breeds and educate them about responsible dog ownership. It’s the perfect weekend family activity.
