CGC (CANINE GOOD CITIZEN) - The AKC's Canine Good CitizenŽ (CGC) certification program was started in
1989 to reward dogs with good manners. The CGC program consists of two parts, stressing responsible pet ownership as well
as basic good manners for dogs.
All dogs who pass the ten-step CGC test receive a certificate from the American Kennel Club. To learn more about the
