Then, he started to do what bloodhounds do best--sniff or smell the scents around him.

The show was moved to the Lyndhurst building in Tarrytown, 40 kilometers north of the city, last year and this year because of the coronavirus pandemic.
去年和今年，由于新冠疫情，狗展的举办地改成了该市以北40公里的塔里敦的林德赫斯特大楼。
For hopeful competitors that did not come away with a prize, the event was a chance to show off their dogs and what they can do.
