AKC Museum of the Dog is a nonprofit canine museum located at 101 Park Avenue in the Murray Hill neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City.
[2][3] The museum began in 1982 with donations from benefactors Frank Sabella, Marie Moore, Nancy-Carol Draper and the Westminster Kennel Foundation.
The permanent collection of art consists of Bronze and ceramic sculpture, and paintings.
[2] The museum displays artwork by renowned artists: Edwin Landseer, Maud Earl and Arthur Wardle.
