The AKC "S.T.A.R." Puppy evaluation is available to all puppies who complete a Basic Obedience course with Betsy while under 1 year of age.  This is an excellent certification to have as a precursor to the C.G.C. evaluation.
 
The AKC C.G.C. evaluation is available to all dogs over 6 months of age.  While it is  not a requirement of the AKC for the dog to attend a six week class with me in order to certify it as with the S.T.A.R. program, at this time I only offer this evaluation to my students and it is my recommendation that the dog in question complete the Basic and Intermediate before attempting the certification.
