Canine Good Citizen Program (CGC)

By The Healthy Pets On November 22, 2009 Under Advanced Training

The AKC sponsors this program, which is aimed at making all dogs that graduate from it respected members of the community. Classes geared toward training the handler to qualify his or her dog are offered in most communities. Information about where these classes are conducted can be obtained from the place you shop for your dog’s food and supplies, from local kennel clubs , or from the classified section of your newspaper. The CGC is not a competition of any kind-the dog is scored only on his ability to master the basic requirements.

Anyone interested in this program can obtain information regarding rules as well as when and where testing is held directly from the American Kennel Club.
