Canine Good Citizen

One of the RRUS volunteers, Joyce Lazell, is responsible for the Canine Good Citizen (CGC) testing at the RRCUS nationals next week.

In light of all the Breed specific legislation (BSL), Joyce would like RRs to be the first breed to have a 90% CGC pass rate. She needs our help in the monumental undertaking. So if your dog has passed the CGC exam, please email Joyce at joyce.lazell@highmark.com. She needs your dog's call name, AKC number, breeder, and owner's name (or any of the information that you have).

If you have not gotten your RR through the CGC exam, please look into it.

I have gotten a CGC on both Bacari and Roadie. It was a great experience. It was a confidence builder for Bacari and a bonding time for Roadie and me. It also was not that hard- both my boys liked being in the ring and getting all the attention. You can't use treats during the test but are allowed to talk to the dog as much as you want.

If you have any questions about CGC, please feel free to ask.
