Canine Good Citizen

What is Canine Good Citizen Certification?

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

What dogs qualify for Canine Good Citizen Certification?

Canine Good Citizen is open to all dogs–purebred and mixed breed. There are no age minimums or limits for participating in the Canine Good Citizen program, because yes, you can always teach an old dog new tricks!

Why get your dog CGC certified?

By training in CGC, you and your dog will deepen your bond and become a more connected team. Not only will you and your dog learn the basics of dog training and master skills like sit, down, and stay, but your dog will become a welcomed community member when out in public.

The CGC title is a prerequisite for many therapy dog certifications, as well as a great introduction to more advanced dog sports and activities.
