✨ CGC Is Back — And It’s Time to Level Up ✨
Registration is officially open for our next Canine Good Citizen class with Palmetto Obedience Training Club.

If your dog already has the basics down and you’re ready for polished, real-world manners, this is your next step.

In this class we focus on:
• Loose leash walking without the sled-dog audition
• Solid sits, downs, and stays with duration
• Polite greetings (no launching at strangers)
• Confidence and focus in everyday situations

The CGC title is nationally recognized and is often a stepping stone toward therapy work, advanced training, or simply having a dog you can confidently take anywhere. It is the standard for well-mannered companions.

📍 1430 John B White Sr Blvd, Spartanburg, SC
🗓 Wednesdays at 7:00 PM beginning March 4
🎓 Led by experienced club instructors
🔗 Register at PalmettoObedienceTrainingClub.com

Spots are limited, and this class traditionally fills quickly.

Let’s turn “mostly listens” into “absolutely dependable.” 🏅
