Canine Good Citizens – Urban 2016

Congratulations to our new group of CGCU teams – May, 2016

AKC Urban CGC requires that the dog demonstrate CGC skills and beyond in an urban setting.

As with Canine Good Citizen, AKC Urban CGC has a 10-step test of skills that dogs must pass to earn the official AKC Urban CGC title.

The AKC Approved CGC Evaluator was Lorain Abel, DVM

Canine Good Citizen 2016


RVKC gave a series of free CGC classes in August and September 2016. September 7th was the CGC test date.
Those being tested demonstrated they could behave in public by performing such tasks as allowing themselves to be greeted by a stranger, be brushed by a groomer, walk on a loose lead, stay when left and come on command, behave around another dog and in a crowd situation, remain calm around noisy distractions and remain calm while being held on lead while the owner was out of sight. Pictured below are some of the new 2016 CGC Certificate holders.
