What is Canine Good Citizen™?

At the AKC, they believe that all dogs can be good dogs, and all owners can be great owners: all it takes is a little bit of training, lots of love, and of course, plenty of praise along the way. 

​

That’s why they created the Canine Good Citizen™ (CGC) program: a two-part course designed to help you and your dog be the best you can be–together.

 

Since 1989, over 1 million dogs and their owners have participated in CGC, mastering ten basic skills that instill confidence and good manners in and out of your home.
