There is no age limitation, but the tested dog must have completed all its immunizations prior to testing. This allows a speedier introduction of your dog into therapeutic work if your dog is otherwise ready. Dogs do not have to be purebred to earn the CGC designation. Here is a link to the AKC web page that lists the Canine Good Citizen test procedures. www.akc.org/love/cgc/testprocedures.cfm Cold Spring Kay Scott, ACSW, CASAC 31 Har Mil Drive, Cold Spring, NY 10516 Work Phone: 845-265-7645 Email: kscott@highlands.com Delta Society Pet Partners Team Evaluator Evaluations Provided: By Appointment Only.
