On March 15, 2010, Jennifer Rutkiewicz of Ann Arbor earned a Canine Good Citizen (CGC) certificate with her second dog, Milo, a Beagle. A couple of months ago, Jennifer earned her first CGC certificate with her other dog, Hailey, an all American mix breed.
The CGC program tests dogs and their owners via ten different exercises to determine if they are good citizens in the dog community. Some of those exercises include: coming when called, sit stay or a down stay, walking on a loose leash, reacting appropriately to distractions, walking amongst a crowd without jumping on people, and more. To learn how your dog can become a good citizen, contact Michael Burkey, a professional dog trainer in south east Michigan. Group classes are held at the Humane Society of Huron Valley, Ann Arbor Michigan and at Lil Nell's Pet Salon in Walled Lake, Michigan. Michael also provides in home training and board and train programs for clients.
Congrats to Jennifer and Milo! They have earned it!
