Does Your Dog Pass the Test?

Canine Good Citizen TestThe Canine Good Citizen (CGC) Test puts you and your dog to the challenge. Your dog’s manners and your stick-to-it-iveness are on the line as you go through the 10 test items from accepting a friendly stranger to supervised separation (from owner).
The AKC administers the test and provides information on how to train for a passing grade.
If you haven’t heard of CGC before, but you have a dog at home, it may not be a bad idea for you to give the test a try and see just how good a citizen your dog has become.
The NYC Dog Fun & Events meetup group is hosting a CGC testing day on June 6th and all the proceeds go to the Animal Haven shelter. If you miss the signup for this date, there are more listed in NY state on the AKC website.
The Good Dog FoundationIf your dog passes the CGC test, then you could possibly go further to the Good Dog Foundation (of Brooklyn) where they certify dog-human teams for pet-assisted therapy.
Not only would you know that you have a good dog, but the whole world would know it too.
