That's fantastic, well done both of you!  :D

I've just started week 2 of the Silver award with Roxy.

We really enjoyed doing the bronze, which was only about 3 weeks ago when she passed. She now sit's and waits nicely before going through doors and gates, is happy to be groomed, plays and walks nicely on a loose lead and we even taught her to do a a few tricks like twist, and giving us both of her paws! to name but a few. It was good fun to watch the other puppy's progess and to also learn about how we as owners tend to give our puppys and dogs mixed signals, which can often confuse them. I learned alot. I think the Good citizen award is really good and gives new and old dog owners a good insight into basic training and obediance.

Good luck with you Bronze!!!  ;) xx

Well done, Coco's in just getting ready to take gold, if you want information on what you have to do, you can log onto the Kennel Club web page and it will tell you all that is needed for each grade.

Hi katie

Braan passed his puppy foundation on wednesday night and so we too start bronze now  :D

I haven't done Good Citizen with Fern as the training group I go to has only just started it

I have a dilema now tho as fern and Braan can go in the same class - will have to talk to them it. Someone said i could do a week about with them but I'm not sure this would be fair  :-\

Breagha passed her puppy foundation after 4 weeks in the class, we're now working towards her bronze aswell.  I passed the Bronze recently with my Patterdale Terrier Brodie.  Only took us a year  ph34r  Brodie has been a bit more of a challenge than your average dog!  The test wasn't as bad as I expected, nothing very complicated in there at all.  Hopefully it won't take Breagha as long to pass hers!
