AKC Canine Good Citizen Program

Why You Should Enlist Your Dog to the Canine Good Citizen (C.G.C.) Program

The Canine Good Citizen Program at Woof & Wags K-9 Obedience Training is designed to recognize dogs who have good manners at home and in the community. This rapidly growing, nationally recognized program stresses responsible dog ownership for owners and basic training and good manners for dogs. All dogs who pass the 10 step CGC test may receive a certificate from the American Kennel Club. Call us to learn more.

The Benefits of Training

The AKC CGC 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.
