Abigail, my sweet little redhead, passed her official tests last
night: she has now earned her Canine Good Citizen Advanced title and Therapy
Dog. She can now go on therapy dog visits and will be registered with
Therapy Dogs International. After she completes ten visits, she will be
eligible for her Therapy Dog title from the AKC, in addition to the two titles
she now holds, Canine Good Citizen and Canine Good Citizen Advanced. She worked
very hard, I am so proud of her. Just goes to show that a rescue dog with
epilepsy can do anything she sets her mind to do!
Her neighborhood buddy Hogan, a
rescued Papillon, also passed his Therapy Dog examination last night. For
those who live in the greater Capital District of New York, the Animal
Protective Foundation in Scotia has comprehensive training programs for dogs
such as puppy obedience, CGC, Therapy, and Agility, plus their instructors have
numerous years of experience, are all certified, and use gentle, positive
methods to train the dogs. Also have the best shelter in the region.
