GOOD CITIZEN $45 per hour and/or test |

The
Canine Good Citizen (CGC) program, established
in 1989, is an American Kennel Club program
to promote responsible dog ownership and to
encourage the training of well-mannered dogs.
A dog and handler team must take a short behavioral
evaluation of less than half an hour; dogs who
pass the evaluation earn the Canine Good Citizen
certificate, which many people represent after
the dog's name, abbreviating it as CGC; for
example, "Fido, CGC".
The evaluation consists
of ten objectives. All items must be completed
satisfactorily or the team fails. Test items
include:
* Accepting a friendly
stranger.
* Sitting politely for petting.
* Allowing basic grooming procedures.
* Walking on a loose lead.
* Walking through a crowd.
* Sitting and lying down on command and staying
in place.
* Coming when called.
* Reacting appropriately to another dog.
* Reacting appropriately to distractions.
* Calmly enduring supervised separation from
the owner.
If all ten objectives
are met, the handler can apply for a certificate
and special dog tag from the AKC stating that
the dog has earned the CGC.
SouthWest Canine
Services offers both training and testing for
the Canine Good Citizen program. |

Busy
Owner? Need a way to dispose of your pets waste?
Unclean
yards smell, annoy neighbors and attract flies.
Pets & people using dirty yards track poop
into the house.
Dog
faeces carry harmful infections, the most widely
known being Toxocariasis. Human Toxocariasis
is potentially a serious infection and is a
direct consequence of soil or sand contamination
with faeces carrying eggs of the parasite. Toxocara
eggs are not infectious until they mature, which
usually takes at least 2–3 weeks after
they have been deposited by a dog. Dog faeces
will only contaminate the soil when it has been
left on the ground for this period of time,
so a routine clean up schedule is important. |
