- Test 2 : Sitting politely for petting
- Test 3 : Appearance and grooming
- Test 4: Out for a walk (walking on a loose lead)

All dog and handler teams who finish this class will have the opportunity to take the CGC final evaluation. Upon passing the evaluation, you will receive a GSDOC certificate of completion and an AKC form that you may send to AKC to receive an official AKC Certificate and/or Title (depending on your selections).
