On May 20, 2025, four Berkley School teachers training their dogs to be School Comfort Dogs with Michael Burkey at Michigan Dog Training, earned their Urban Canine Good Citizen title.

After students pass the CGC and Advanced CGC, they become eligible to test for the Urban CGC which includes walking on a loose leash amongst city distractions and performing other obedience skills. They all passed with flying colors! Congrats to all!!

It's been a pleasure working with Angie, Don and their Lab/Shepherd mix, named Jet. They completed MDT's 8 Private Lesson program and made so much progress in improving Jet's comfort around other dogs and improving his obedience.

Great job Angie, Don and Jet! They are now ready to come back to our Perfect Practice group classes for follow up training.
