About this event

Prerequisite: Steps to CGC class or instructor approval.

Get ready to take The AKC CGC test with this 6-week class.

If this is your first class that you will be taking with your dog then it is highly recommend you start with the AKC STAR Puppy if your pup is under 10 months.  If 10 months and older it is recommended to take the Family Dog or Steps to CGC Class.

This class will work on the 10 skills needed to pass the CGC test. It is open to all dogs – purebred and mixed breeds. Having a CGC may be an advantage when renting a residence or obtaining homeowner insurance. It may be required prior to registering as a therapy dog. The class is taught by an AKC CGC evaluator.

1. Accepting a friendly stranger
