The Kennel Club Good Citizen Dog Training Scheme
Established in 1992, The Kennel Club Good Citizen Dog Training Scheme is the largest dog training programme in the UK. The scheme is open to all dogs, young or old, pedigree or crossbreed. Dogs do not need to be registered with The Kennel Club to take part. The scheme promotes responsible dog ownership by teaching owners to train their dog for everyday life situations. There are four award levels: Puppy Foundation, Bronze, Silver and Gold.
The bronze award aims to produce a dog that will walk and behave in a controlled manner. It is a basic standard that all adult dogs can achieve with correct handling. Owners must show that they have means of picking up after their dog and that their dog is wearing a lead and collar with the name and the address of the owner inscribed on the collar/disc to take part.
The bronze award scheme on the day will be run by the Trent Valley Dog Training Club and cost £3.00 which includes your certificate should you pass, dogs do not have to have passed the Puppy Foundation to take the Bronze Award.
