Programs
AKC Canine Good Citizen
The AKC offers an AKC Canine Good Citizen(CGC) program that provides perfect framework for training your dog to become a polite member of society. The 10 test items on the CGC test are practical, functional behaviors that every dog should have to be welcomed in the community. At Leashes and Leads we provide a class to help you train your dog to be more prepared for the test(more info below) or a test out option. If you feel like your dog is ready test out please reach out to melissa@leashesandleads.com or grace@leashesandleads.com to schedule a time with our Certified Evaluators/Trainers.
