Where Does Cheeky Got her Best Behaviour ! ?

Cheeky's Certificate and Medal

What is a Canine Good Citizen (CGC)?

A CGC is a dog that is well behaved around people and other dogs, at home and in public. It is the kind of dog that you want to own, one that is safe with children and one that you would welcome as a neighbour. It is a dog that is a pleasure to own and a nuisance to no one.

To become a CGC, dogs must demonstrate, by means of a short series of test, that they meet these requirements.

There are a total to ten tests :-
1) Accepting a friendly stranger,
2) Sitting politely for patting,
3) Appearance and Grooming,
4) Out for a walk on loose lease,
5) Walking through a crowd,
6) Sit and down on command: staying in place,
7) Coming when called,
8) Reaction to another dog,
9) Reaction to distraction, and
10) Supervised separation.

Cheeky passed all the tests with flying color! Now you know why Cheeky has the ability to behave appropriately in public.
