Õý°ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½± Family Dog is a comprehensive good manners program for all dogs, whether purebred or mixed breed. While participating in enjoyable activities that are fun for both dogs and people, dogs become well-socialized and develop a lifelong bond with their owners.
Within the Õý°ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½± Family Dog organizational umbrella are programs that teach family members how to best communicate with their dogs. The CGC programs (Õý°ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½± S.T.A.R. Puppy, Canine Good Citizen, and Õý°ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½± Community Canine and Urban CGC) begin with teaching basic skills such as sit, down, and come and they build on these skills as dogs move from one activity to the next. The result is a dog that any owner can be proud to take into the community.
