    WOW! That's GREAT news Roxie!! What a wonderful, heart-warming service you will provide! My dad is in a nursing home and I've seen the most touching reactions from very ill patients, when they stroke your soft fur and see your smiling face. I know you'll make everyone very very happy. Just tell mommy to bring some tissues and try not to cry too much (but a proud cry!!)

    TO SWEET ROXIE:
    How much happiness you will bring to the people you'll visit in the nursing homes!!! You are a wonderful, beautiful pup and your mom must be very proud of you.
    And congratulations also to Sandra's STAR. You'll become even more of a shiny star for all the frinds you'll make during your visits.

    CGC is a certification program that is designed to reward dogs who have good manners at home and in the community. The Canine Good Citizen Program is a two-part program that stresses responsible pet ownership for owners and basic good manners for dogs. All dogs who pass the CGC test receive a certificate from the American Kennel Club and are automatically recorded in the AKC's Canine Good Citizen Archive. You do not need to have a purebred dog in order to get this certification.

    Evaluators must pass AKC criteria in order to test a owner and their dog. There are 10 steps the handler and dog are tested for. They are:

    1: Accepting a friendly stranger

    2: Sitting politely for petting

    3: Appearance and grooming

    4: Out for a walk (walking on a loose lead)

    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

    10: Supervised separation

    My Dusty got his CGC when he was only 6 months old! If your dog has basic manners then sign them up! You will receive a certificate suitable for framing so you tell the world your pup is a CANINE GOOD CITIZEN!
