AKC CGC/TDI Testing
Several times a year GPDFA conducts
AKC Canine Good Citizen and Therapy Dogs International testing.
Certified testers test dogs in very basic obedience (sit,
stay, down, come, walking politely on a lead), tolerance to
handling by strangers, behavior in crowds and near other dogs,
and separation from the owner. Certified Therapy Dogs are
welcome in many hospitals and nursing homes as visitors for
the sick and lonely. For our next scheduled CGC/TDI Test,
please contact us.
