Two Bears Dog Training
Canine Good Citizen Class (CGC)
Where you get "the real trainer" not a franchise!

This class will address only the CGC test. It is not intended to address behavioral problems.

The American Kennel Club (AKC) Canine Good Citizen Test is open to all dogs, purebreds and mixed breeds. It is not a test of precision but a test of attention, confidence and compliance under distraction. While it does test basic on leash obedience, its purpose is to test the handler’s control and the dog’s attention, in real world settings.
