Meet Scottie therapy dog Tuli and learn about pet therapy work.

The CGC skills will be demonstrated and opportunity provided to practice.Those ready to try for their Canine Good Citizen credential can be tested at the Fun Day. Your Scottie does not have to be AKC registered (or even purebred)!
There is NO COST for participating in the CGC test, but we ask that you bring a new or gently used dog item, toy or pet food/treats as a donation. The Service Committee will be donating the items to local shelters.
Give it a try! If not successful, you can always try again later!
