On Tuesday night, Ms. Beth took me to an AKC Canine Good Citizen test. It was very exciting!! First, she had to fill out some paperwork, and then I had to wait my turn to show them what I could do!!
There are 10 exercises, or 10 stations that I had to "pass" in order to receive my Canine Good Citizen designation. These are the 10 tests I had to pass:
1. Accepting a Friendly Stranger
2.Sitting politely for petting.
3. Apperance and grooming
4. Out for a walk on a loose lead
5. Walking through a crowd
6. Sit and down on command (staying in place).
7. Coming when called
8. Reaction to another dog
9. Reaction to distraction
10. Supervised seperation
I passed all 10 stations and it was really a lot of fun!! Didn't stress me out at all. Ms. Beth says that I am too cute some times :) Overall, it was a great experience and I'm so proud to join the ranks of other Canine Good Citizens all across America!!
