CANINE GOOD CITIZEN (CGC)
CERTIFICATION PREP COURSE
We all want our dogs to be Canine Good Citizens, right? Well, we can help make that happen! During this five-week intensive course, we focus on the ten skills needed by all well-mannered dogs as outlined in the American Kennel Club’s Canine Good Citizen Program. The CGC Program is designed to reward dogs who have good manners at home and in the community while stressing responsible pet ownership.

We do not have an upcoming Canine Good Citizen Class scheduled at this time. If you would like to be notified when the next class becomes available, please fill out the contact form.
Your dog must either be a graduate of our Intermediate Obedience & Problem-Solving course or have previous training. Dogs must be at least 8 months old and friendly with strangers and other dogs. This is a 6-week course with the assessment being administered on the last class date.
