THE KENNEL CLUB's GOOD CITIZEN DOG SCHEME AWARD: We run regular courses to educate owners about the importance of having a well trained dog which is completely well socialised and socially acceptable to other members of society. For full details about the Good Citizen Dog Scheme and what it covers please click on the Kennel Club logo below:

WE WOULD LIKE TO CONGRATULATE EVERYONE WHO HAS TAKEN AND PASSED THE GOOD CITIZENS TEST in 2009

These passes are genuine achievements. All dogs have to show that they are able complete the exercises to a satisfactory standard. At Acorn Dog Training, we do NOT allow dogs to pass tests if they are unable to complete the required tasks in the required manner.

Hi Fran

We just wanted to say thank you so much for all you have done in the past 2 months. I am delighted that Biscuit passed her Bronze Test this evening so soon after her Puppy Foundation Assessment.

We look forward to Silver training next week.

Thank you once again.

Woof woof
