Established in 1992, The Kennel Club Good Citizen Dog Training Scheme is the largest dog training programme in the UK. The scheme is open to all dogs, young or old, pedigree or crossbreed. Dogs do not need to be registered with The Kennel Club to take part. The scheme promotes responsible dog ownership by teaching owners to train their dog for everyday life situations. There are four award levels: Puppy Foundation, Bronze, Silver and Gold.

Training at our Club covers all elements required to pass the Kennel Club assessments. We encourage our members to take the assessments. Even though our Puppy and Foundations  classes will cover a lot of the required elements, it is usually members in Intermediate and Intermediate Plus that enter the assessments.
