An overview of the classes


Puppy
Those of you who have owned your dog from a puppy will be aware of how important it is to start educating your dog from a young age. Before your puppy settles in to a new environment and starts setting the ground rules, it is vital to provide him or her with an interesting and educational learning programme. This can set the foundations for the future and help you live a happy life with your new family member





Bronze
The Bronze award aims to provide the handlers with a basic knowledge of understanding and training their canine companion and produce a dog that will walk and behave in a controlled manner on the lead, will stay in one position on command, will allow its owner to clean, groom and inspect it.




Silver

These classes are for dogs who have passed their Bronze Test and whose owners would like to further their training.
After successful completion of the Silver Award, awardees can purchase a Silver Good Citizen Dog Scheme Tag

 

Gold
The Kennel Club Good Citizen Gold Award is the highest level of Good Citizenship and builds upon the skills learned in the Silver Award.
The Gold Award is a natural progression of practical dog training skills and introduces new concepts such as Relaxed Isolation, Stop the Dog and Send the Dog to Bed exercises, which are important in everyday life situations. The Gold Award aims to provide handlers with a greater knowledge of understanding their canine companion
