BonaFide CGC Preparatory Class The American Kennel Club's CGC Program is a wonderful way to showcase your dog's good manners so he can be distinguished as a "Canine Good Citizen." Prepare for the 10-step CGC test that covers basic skills such as loose-leash walking, sitting politely for petting, coming when called, and more A great follow-up class to Canine Cornerstones or one of our breed-specific classes, this four-week class helps dog and handler prepare for the CGC test, which is routinely given at BonaFide. The CGC distinction is also a great departure point for other canine activities, such as obedience, agility, therapy work, and more! The Canine Good Citizen Program is open to all dogs, both purepred and mixed- breed. For more informaiton on the Canine Good Citizen Program, please visit http://www.akc.org/events/cgc/index.cfm Dogs should have a solid sit, down, recall (come), wait/stay, and be able to walk politely on lead around distraction. This class is a review and refining of basic skills, not an introduction of basic manners. PLEASE NOTE: Harnesses, haltis, and correction collars are not allowed during CGC testing. If you are dependent on these kinds of equipment, you are NOT ready for the CGC class. Class length: 4 weeks Class size limit: 6 Class duration: 45 minutes Prerequisites A dog at least 6 months old A positive attitude A sense of humor Current vaccination records (including rabies for all dogs 28 weeks and older) Dog and handler must have completed at MINIMUM one basic teen or adult obedience class (puppy classes do not count) - PLEASE consult your current BonaFide instructor or contact us to see if your dog is ready for this class. The instructor has the right to excuse any dog and handler that come into the class with insufficient skills (no refunds or class credits). Handlers and dogs should not be reliant on corrective equipment or harnesses. While these items are great training tools, they are not acceptable in CGC testing. If your dog is still working on corrective equipment, you are not ready for this class. Handler must be an adult (18 yrs or older) unless prior permission is given by the instructor or the class is designated as a kid's class. Any minor handling a dog must be supervised at all times by a parent or guardian. Please call us at 402.250.9452 or email us with any questions.
