Fees: $20.00 for CGC test only. $5.00 extra for TDI evaluation combined with CGC test. $20.00 TDI evaluation only.

Who may participate: All dogs, including both purebred and mixed breed dogs are welcome to participate in the AKC's Canine Good Citizen® (CGC) Program. Dogs must be old enough to have received necessary immunizations such as rabies vaccines. Owners will sign the Responsible Dog Owners Pledge attesting to having the dog under the routine care of a veterinarian who will work with the owner to determine an appropriate plan and schedule for vaccines and other health care procedures.

There is no age limit for the CGC test. A dog is never too old to be a good citizen. Puppies who have completed all immunizations and boosters may be tested, however, because we know that behavior and temperament can change over time, when puppies pass the CGC test, owners should have them re-tested as adults.

Dogs must be 12 months of age for a TDI evaluation.

Dogs must pass their CGC test before being eligible to complete their TDI requirements.

Dogs must have current vaccinations.

Bring a flat buckle collar, a 6 foot leash, and a dog brush for the test.

Exercises for CGC test: Accepting a friendly stranger, sitting politely for petting, appearance and grooming, Out for a walk (walking on a loose leash), Sit and Down on Command/Staying in place, Coming when called, Reactions to another dog, Reactions to distractions, and Supervised separation.

Additional exercises for TDI test: Reaction to medical equipment, Leave It (Food in bowl), Acclimation to infirmities, Say Hello (getting close enough for a handicapped individual to pet), and Reaction to children.
