The National Dog Show: Philadelphia to Oaks

The Thanksgiving dog show, with pet-friendly hotels nearby.

The National Dog Show is held each November at the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center in Oaks and aired on Thanksgiving Day. Handlers drive in with crates and vans, so pet-friendly rooms in King of Prussia go first. Turn on the pet-friendly filter when you book.
