Canine Good Citizen (CGC)

WHY CGC: This program provides an excellent foundation for training in other fun activities such as Rally, Obedience, and Agility, and results in a well-mannered dog who is a joy to live with. Some therapy dog groups require passing the CGC Test as a prerequisite, some insurance companies recommend CGC training, and an increasing number of apartments and condos are requiring CGC training for resident dogs.

CGC is a 10-skill test that teaches good manners to dogs and responsible dog ownership to their owners.

Your dog will learn:

  • Accepting a friendly stranger

  • Sitting politely for petting

  • Appearance and grooming

  • Out for a walk (walking on a loose lead)

  • Walking through a crowd

  • Sit and down on cue and stay in place

  • Coming when called

  • Reaction to another dog

  • Reaction to distraction

  • Supervised separation
