National Dog Show preview at Lasalle University

EAST GERMANTOWN (WPVI) -- La Salle University students got a preview of this year's National Dog Show Thursday.

Some of the competitive dogs showcased their skills inside La Salle's School of Business in Philadelphia's East Germantown section.

The potentially prize-winning pups tackled an obstacle course and a frisbee catching demonstration.

The campus is no stranger to canine companions.

La Salle was one of the first universities to open a dog-friendly residence hall.
