Canine Good Citizen & Therapy Classes

Note to Students: 

 CGC and Therapy Dog classes are advanced level classes working toward passing the CGC and Therapy Dog tests.  Each of these tests requires that dogs work without treats.  If you and your dog are not quite proficient at some of the basic skills in these classes then we recommend you try our Canine Good Handler class to proof skills prior to eliminating treats in CGC and Therapy Dog classes.

Therapy Dog Class - 7 Weeks

There is nothing quite as rewarding as working with your dog doing animal assisted therapy. If you have an interest in becoming a therapy dog team, this class is a great option. During the first six weeks of class students will work on basic obedience and manners at an advanced level, preparing them for therapy dog team testing. Emphasis will be placed on working around an increased level of distractions, proofing skills, working around hospital equipment, and beginning to work without the use of treats. All teams will be encouraged to work at their own level with no pressure to move forward to quickly. During the final week (Week &) the Love on a Leash Controlled Evaluation will be administered, setting successful teams up for the final Love on a Leash Supervised Evaluation. 
Prerequisite:  Canine Good Citizen certificate or instructor permission.

Canine Good Citizen Class - 7 Weeks

This class will focus on the 10 requirements for passing the AKC Canine Good Citizen test (CGC). The ACK created the Canine Good Citizen program to encourage pet owners to strive for a higher level of training. The CGC has also become a standard first step for handlers wishing to train their dogs for therapy work. A CGC certificate should be considered a source of great accomplishment and pride as it requires dogs and handlers to pass 10 basic skill tests without the use of treats or specified training equipment. CGC teams are ambassadors for the canine community assuring that our beloved pets will continue to be allowed to accompany us throughout our communities. The Canine Good Citizen Test will be administered int he last class (week #7)
Prerequisite:  Pet Dog 102
