NEW YORK — In the Year of the Dog, which one will have its day at the Westminster Kennel Club show? About 3,200 dogs are getting ready for America’s most prominent canine competition, set for Feb. 10, 12 and 13. “Of course, every year is the year of the dog at Westminster,” show spokeswoman Gail Miller Bisher said at a news conference Wednesday. But Westminster’s agility contest this year includes a record 29 mixed-breed dogs, about 9 per cent of the total agility field. The Westminster show will be televised on various 21st Century Fox-owned channels; some early rounds are also being streamed on the club’s website.
