| CGC coming up, January 11, 2011 |
| Reviewer: K. M. H. |
| If you want a CGC title on your dog, this is the book to read. It explains very nicely the ten parts that make up the CGC test and describes the canine behavior necessary to pass each test. It also explains how each test translates into real-world situations that a dog should be trained to handle. |
