Well, jasmine failed her CGC but...
i am very proud of her anyway. she didnt bark at a single person. when all of the other dogs were barking she laid at our feet paitently looking. the dog that was used for dog on dog interaction was a shelti and jasmine had no clue what it was and didnt like the dog, but didnt bark. we passed 8/10. many of you may or may not know that jasmine has been a fear barker for 7 months now. we have completed sub novice and novice obedience. she just turned a year old and when she is 2 we will retest her. she failed leaving us for 3 minutes and the dog on dog interaction because she wanted to play with the sheltie. we have a lot of work ahead of us, but we have come such a long way. im so proud of her even though we didnt pass.

I wish you good luck with your continued training! I know how hard the fear barking can be as mine is the same. We did recently pass our CGC but not without a lot of practice and hard work! I am sending you good thoughts!!

And that is why having markers for our progress is important. The goal is not the certificate, but the well-mannered dog. And its the journey from here to there that improves our relationship with our dogs. The markers, tell us what we need to work on. I am glad you are proud of your dog.

yeah, there are ten tests, and you have to pass all of them to get the certificate. It does not have to be perfect. I mean recall is a just that, no sit in front, no finish. Just displaying that the dog will come to you. But there are parts of it, that have requirements for a pass, like sitting for petting. The dog cannot shy away. Grooming and appearance, the dog has to let you touch both front paws and look in the ears. And the three minute separation, the dog cannot bark continuously, pull the holder out of the chair, act aggressively, eliminate (if inside), or otherwise lose its mind.
