AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy ProgramThe AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy
is an exciting new program designed to get dog owners and their puppies off to
a good start. The AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy Program is an incentive program for loving
dog owners who have taken the time to take their puppies through a basic training
class.The Benefits of Training Training classes teach you
how to best communicate with your puppy. Organized training classes also provide
an opportunity for your dog to socialize with other dogs. In classes aimed at
earning the AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy distinction, you’ll be able to get information
on all of your puppy-raising questions including housetraining, chewing, and the
most effective way to teach practical skills such as coming when called. AKC S.T.A.R.
Puppy training is a natural lead in to the AKC® Canine Good Citizen® Program.
How
It Works When you complete a basic training class with your puppy (up
to 1 year old) your puppy is eligible to be enrolled in the AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy
Program. You'll attend any puppy or basic training class at least 6 weeks.
Your instructor will administer the AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy test at the end of the
course. Upon passing the test, you'll get an application to send to AKC® for
enrollment in the AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy Program. All dogs are welcome to participate
in the AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy Program including purebreds and mixed breeds. Your
puppy will receive the AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy Medal (for display or memento purposes;
not suitable as a collar tag). You and your puppy will be listed in the AKC S.T.A.R.
Puppy records. In addition, so that you can continue learning, you’ll receive
