Hey Rhode Island! Are you limited in your dog training options and looking for something more rewarding for both you and your dog? Canine College, located in Holbrook, provides a great variety of dog training options. Our dog training facility is less than an hour’s drive from Providence, RI and we’ve already had dozens of Rhode Island residents come up for the Canine Good Citizen test.
We’re one of few dog training facilities in Massachusetts and Rhode Island that provides the CGC test. This test is set to prove to both you, your dog, and your community that your dog is well-behaved and that you are a responsible dog owner.
What Does the CGC Test Entail?
Originally founded by the American Kennel Club in 1989, CGC is a 10-step test taken over the course of a half hour. Each step will test your dog’s ability to behave when subject to different environmental stimuli, such as meeting a stranger, allowing to be pet, and being able to properly interact with other dogs. For northern Rhode Islanders, the CGC test at Canine College along with the certification award is worth the drive! If you and your dog complete the 10-step test in the allotted time and to the satisfaction of the assessor, you will be awarded with an official certificate from the American Kennel Club.
If you’re interested in Canine Good Citizen, our professional dog training company recommends signing up for a private training course in order to determine whether or not your dog is ready for the Canine Good Citizen test. Many of our past clients have signed up for Elementary I and II as well as advanced dog training courses in order to work their way up to taking the CGC. Contact us to learn more!
