AKC EVALUATION

The AKC Canine Good Citizen (CGC) program is open to all dogs of any age and breed. It’s a 10-skill test designed to improve canine manners and responsible dog ownership. While CGC is suitable for all ages, AKC also offers S.T.A.R. Puppy, a specialized program for puppies starting their training journey.
