Canine Good Citizenship Program

AKC's Canine Good Citizenship Program was started in 1989.  This program recognizes dogs who demonstrate good manners in their homes and communities.  There are two parts to the program:

1. Responsible pet ownership 
2. Basic good manners for pets

The dogs that pass the 10 step CGC test can receive a certificate from AKC; showing the date, and their dog's name when they passed the test.
