The CGC (leash walking specifically)

[wolf_Q]

Just out of pure curiosity here.....I'd like to (hopefully) have Nebo pass the Canine Good Citizenship test eventually. Of course I'm going to get him through the basic and advanced classes first. Could anyone give me more info on this and what is required? I know I have read about it before, but I don't remember the exact details. Also I think I remember part of it was something to do with leash walking. What is the definition of this? I was just thinking about that as I took him for a walk tonight. Like right now, I have Nebo so he will walk *nicely* on a leash....now I'm not saying I don't feel a dog at the end of the leash...or that he walks perfectly by my side........buuuut...he is never really pulling or straining himself so he's panting and choking (like Lady does, lol) Thanks in advance for any info. :)

Amy, I'm sure if Roxey could pass it, Nebo could too! Good Luck!
