How to fill out akc canine good citizen

How to fill out AKC Canine Good Citizen:

1. Start by obtaining the application form from the American Kennel Club (AKC) website or from your local AKC-affiliated dog training club.
2. Read the instructions carefully to understand the requirements and guidelines for the Canine Good Citizen (CGC) program.
3. Ensure that your dog meets the eligibility criteria for the AKC Canine Good Citizen program. Typically, dogs of any breed or mix can participate, as long as they are at least 6 months old and are not aggressive towards people or other animals.
4. Schedule a training session or enroll your dog in a CGC prep class. This will help your dog learn and practice the skills necessary for the CGC test. Training usually covers exercises such as sitting politely for petting, walking on a loose leash, and coming when called.
5. Work on each of the 10 required exercises specified in the AKC CGC test. These exercises include accepting a friendly stranger, sitting politely for petting, walking on a loose leash, walking through a crowd, staying in place, coming when called, reacting appropriately to another dog, reacting appropriately to distractions, supervised separation, and being calmly examined by a veterinarian.
6. Practice these exercises diligently with your dog, making sure they understand and can perform them reliably. Use positive reinforcement techniques such as treats, praise, and rewards to motivate and encourage good behavior.
7. Once you feel confident that your dog is ready, find a CGC evaluator near you. These evaluators can be found through the AKC website or by contacting local dog training clubs. Schedule a date and time for the CGC test.
8. On the day of the test, arrive on time and bring along all necessary documentation, including the completed application form and any required fees.
9. During the test, follow the instructions of the evaluator and demonstrate your dog's proficiency in each of the 10 CGC exercises. Remain calm and relaxed, providing clear cues and guidance to your dog.
10. If your dog successfully completes all 10 exercises, congratulate them and celebrate their achievement! You will receive a CGC certificate and your dog's name will be added to the AKC's Canine Good Citizen records.
