The AKC website states, “The Canine Good Citizen Program is designed to reward dogs who have good manners at home and in the community.” So, it’s no wonder why our CGC Program is a popular first step many owners take when training their dogs. This program will help your canine companion build a foundation for obedience, agility, tracking, and performing skills.

Many owners find the CGC Program to be an enjoyable experience where they’re able to find joy in training their dogs. They also discover that canines with solid obedience training are a pleasure to live with and be around. CGC-Certified pups also have good manners in the presence of other people and dogs and seem to thoroughly appreciate the company of the owner who took the time to provide the training.

Considering CGC Training/Certification?

• All training programs at Sit Means Sit will prepare you and your dog for the CGC Certification.
• Owners who have trained their dogs themselves may also have their dogs tested.
• Training sessions allow owners and dogs to bond through positive reinforcement, strengthening their relationships and communication.
• The test has no age limit; a dog is never too old to be a good citizen and never too young (as long as they have completed all their immunizations and boosters).
• We welcome both purebred and mixed breeds to participate in the program.
• CGC training exposes dogs to different environments, people, and animals, helping them become more socialized and comfortable in various situations.
