This class will prepare you and your dog for Therapy work and testing, Service work and testing and the Canine Good Citizen Test. Dogs should have a good understanding of how to sit, down, stay, come, and walk politely (such as this way or heel) around other dogs. We will help you and your dog work through a number of exercises on the tests as well as those that you will encounter in life and in medical settings. Practice makes perfect!
The Canine Good Citizen (CGC) Test is a titling through the American Kennel Club (AKC) that is designed to recognize dogs that have good manners at home and in the community. The Canine Good Citizen Program is a two-part program that stresses responsible pet ownership for owners and basic good manners for dogs. All dogs who pass the 10-step CGC test can receive a certificate from the American Kennel Club.
The CGC test also lays the foundation for the Public Access Test for the Misty Pines Certified Service Dogs and the Misty Pines Therapy Dog Test. We hold these tests several times a year at our facility with one of our certified evaluators.
