Biography |
||
New York Magazine once called David Frei "probably the most famous human in the world of canines." As the co-host of NBC's National Dog Show Presented by Purina since its inception in 2002, David is seen every Thanksgiving Day by the largest TV audience for any dog show - more than 25 million viewers each year. It is the same role that he perfected in 27 years as the longtime (1990-2016) co-host of USA Network's Westminster Dog Show. He has now added to his NBC duties as co-host of the Beverly Hills Dog Show, which debuted in 2017. In 2018, David was inducted into the prestigious Dog Writers Association of America's Hall of Fame. Petside.com named him as the Pet Person of the Year in 2011, and in 2015, Dog Fancy magazine, in its final issue, included him in a retrospective, "45 People Who Changed the Dog World." For many years, David's charity, Angel On A Leash, created and advocated for therapy dog programs many places, expanding nationwide and receiving many honors for its wonderful accomplishments. A breeder-owner-handler and judge in the world of purebred dogs for more than 40 years, his dog, Ch. Stormhill's Who's Zoomin' Who, was the top Afghan Hound in the country in 1989 and retired as the top-winning female in the history of the breed. He is licensed by the AKC for Afghan Hounds, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels and Brittanys. He has officiated at shows in the U.S., Canada, Australia, Denmark and China. |
