Say hi to Riley! She is a happy-go-lucky Labrador Retriever who passed her Canine Good Citizen test in October 2010 with CGC evaluator Lisa Ethridge in Flagstaff, Arizona. She started learning to play Flyball earlier this year and is gearing up for her first competition in September with her owner, Kathleen Stasi.
Kathleen says Riley lives life in the fast lane and she never does anything halfway. She loves every person and dog she has ever met, toys, and food! Aside from her newfound affinity for Flyball, Riley enjoys swimming and playing fetch. She is also talented at performing tricks and knows 55 commands.
Thanks to Kathleen Stasi for this great picture of Riley!
“Like” CGC on Facebook and keep posting photos of your CGC and S.T.A.R. grads. Don’t forget to include the particulars about your dog — name, age, breed, when and where he/she passed the test and who the CGC/S.T.A.R. Puppy evaluator was, fun facts — and I’ll try to feature your photo in an upcoming post so you can tell the world your puppy is a S.T.A.R. or Canine Good Citizen!
You can also tell everyone your dog passed by downloading our new social media icons and posting them on your blog, website, or social media pages. The icons and instructions on how to download them can be found on the American Kennel Club’s CGC and AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy pages.
In the meantime, keep checking back for tips, tricks, photos, and CGC news!
