Good Citizen

Dog training clubs in Scotland

The Kennel Club Good Citizen Dog Scheme is the largest dog training scheme in the UK. To find out how to make your dog a model citizen and a perfect member of your family, please contact your nearest club listed below or email : gcds@thekennelclub.org.uk or call 020 7518 1011.

P = Puppy Foundation, B = Bronze, S = Silver, G = Gold 

This is a good thing to start with your dog as it teaches them something along the way. You have a dog that will in theory behave on walks and know his or her own cues. 

You start at ground level and take it from there. Your dog will love this as he is in your company wanting to please you. Most pups do. Be consistent and listen to your instructors. You will learn loads from them. If the club doesn't feel right find another you love don't just put up with something that isn't right for you or your dog.
