More Information
Canine Good Citizen Assessment: The Purina Pro Plan Canine Good Citizen™ Test is a certification program that tests dogs in simulated everyday situations in a relaxed atmosphere. It identifies and rewards dogs that have the training and demeanour to be reliable family members as well as good-standing community members. It is open to all purebred and crossbred dogs. The test of your dog's manners and training is not a competition and does NOT require that you and your dog perform with precision. Membership of Dogs NZ is not needed.
As part of canine good citizen there will be questions based on the Responsibility and care sections of the CGC manual.
