🐾 Is your dog ready to become a Canine Good Citizen? New 5-week class just scheduled to start 7/18 at 3:30pm!! 🐾

The AKC Canine Good Citizen (CGC) program is designed to recognize dogs that demonstrate good manners at home and in public. In our 5-week CGC class, you'll work on the skills needed to pass the CGC test, including:

✔️ Polite greetings with people
✔️ Loose leash walking
✔️ Attention around distractions
✔️ Calm, well-mannered behavior in everyday situations

The first four weeks focus on building and polishing these skills, and during week five, you'll take the official AKC CGC test—included in the cost of the class!

Ready to earn your dog's CGC certificate and show off their great manners? Sign up today and take the next step in your training journey! 🐶🏅

Requirements:
• Completion of Manners 2 (or a Class Readiness Evaluation confirming an equivalent training level)
• Dogs under 1 year old who have not attended classes at WAGD within the past 2 months must complete a new Class Readiness Evaluation
• Dogs over 1 year old who have not attended classes at WAGD within the past 6 months must complete a new Class Readiness Evaluation

☀️ Happy Summer Solstice! ☀️

Today is the Summer Solstice and the first official day of summer! How are you and your pup spending the longest day of the year?

We think a trip to the park is a great way to enjoy those extra hours of daylight. Just be sure to head out early in the morning or later in the evening to avoid the Texas heat, of course. 🐾🌳

Some of our Great Dog Day School pups recently enjoyed a field trip across the street to Cottonwood Park, where they showed off their impressive mat skills! While at the park, they also practiced leash walking, non-greetings, and focusing on their handlers despite all the exciting distractions around them—including kids, activities, and plenty of things to see and sniff.

We're so proud of these pups for making great choices in a challenging environment! ❤️

Ready to help your dog build real-world skills and confidence? Whether you're just getting started or looking to take training to the next level, we'd love to help.
