Therapy Certification Prep Group Class

We have been recognized as Certified Therapy Dog Evaluators by Therapy Dogs United. This 7-week class will prepare your dog for the final exam. A certified therapy dog with Therapy Dogs United is only authorized to visit the general public through an approved program or service endorsed or created by Therapy Dogs United. We do not certify therapy dogs for an individual’s private use or medical needs.

Every dog is required to pass the CGC Test before he/she can volunteer and work in TDU’s programs. According to the AKC, your dog is eligible to take the CGC evaluation at any age, however, if your dog receives his/her CGC certificate prior to turning one year old (12 months of age) you MUST retake the CGC exam as part of TDU’s therapy dog certification process.

Contact your local trainer to inquire about upcoming class schedules.

In the canine justice system, the dogs are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: The professional dog trainers, who investigate and solve the dog’s behavior problems; and the dog owners, who uphold the training knowledge taught to them.

These are their stories…
