Tonight. just 3 days after Farrah's 1 year birthday, we passed the Canine Good Neighbour Examination! (The CGN is the Canadian version of the Canine Good Citizen test performed in the US...click here to see test description ).
There are 12 discrete tests, and Farrah aced them all. I wish I could say it was all the 'handler', but in reality it was her that made us look good. The only comment from the chief evaluator was that Farrah 'whined a bit during the 3 minute supervised isolation test', but she stayed calm and in position the entire time. We had a great time and everyone was so impressed with Farrah's calm temperament in an arena full of dogs and dog smells (the test was occurring at the same time as a 4 day CKC dog show). For the heeling portion of the test, she pranced beautifully about just like the performer that she is! She's such a natural!
