Default My first itsy-bitsy brag

My boy Casey finally has a title - Canine Good Citizen! The very first, simplest, easiest thing to get, but still, it's something. He has had the technical elements down-pat for months, but he never liked people touching him. We have worked with him all summer long on accepting patting from strangers, and finally thought he'd be ready for it.

And...he did fine. Such a little gentleman in all respects. I'm so proud of my baby! Now I hope we can go on and get something a little more impressive.

A CGC is nothing to sneeze at..think of all the people who don't take the time to teach their dogs manners..

Congrats to you both.

I think CGC and its equivalent in other countries is the most important title a dog will ever have - what can be more valuable to a dog than knowing how to live happily and safely with people and other dogs, and having an owner with the commitment and patience to help them achieve this? Huge congratulations to you both.

fjm: You took the words right out of my mouth, only you said them better than I ever could!

Way to go Beach girl and Casey! I think it's a terrific accomplishment and a true testament to the owner/poodle bond and devotion. Congratulations, Chagall and I hope to someday follow in you footsteps/pawprints...first, I have to stop him from his jumping kangaroo greeting antics.

Thanks, all.

I had fun doing it. It really is a lovely thing to have a dog who behaves himself, most of the time.

I sent away for the certificate yesterday and will hang it up someplace. Guess I'll just have to start a "Parade of Fame" wall for him. ;-)
