Details

This class prepares you and your dog for the AKC Canine Good Citizen (CGC) evaluation. The CGC is a test created by the AKC as a framework for training your dog to become a polite member of our society. This course focuses on the 10 test skills that promote good manners and social skills. The behaviors covered in this class are useful skills that you will use in your daily life such as polite greetings, loose leash walking, and recall. This course is also a great way to advance your dog’s training and and can be a smart way to prepare for future therapy dog work. Week four you will have the opportunity to take the test. This class is intended for dogs who have already taken multiple group classes or private lessons.

There are no age, size, breed/mix requirements, but all participants must not exhibit any reactivity and/or aggression issues to dogs and/or people.
