At the American Kennel Club^®, we’re not just champion dogs. We’re the dogs’ champion—all dogs. We believe that all dogs deserve training and a responsible owner and our goal is to reward responsible dog ownership.

 

The AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy^sm 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^sm 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 - * All dogs over 16 weeks of age may join our Beginning Classes. Only those under the age of 1 year qualify for AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy Program. See our CGC Class information.

When you complete a basic training class (taught by an AKC Approved CGC Evaluator) 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 our AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy package that includes:

• A beautiful, frameable certificate designating your puppy is in the AKC S.T.A.R.
• Puppy records at AKC
AKC Puppy Handbook, a valuable resource
• Discount to enroll in AKC Companion Animal Recovery Corporation, a 24-hour recovery service
• Ongoing Monthly Email Newsletter: Your AKC. This includes training tips and up-to-date information every dog owner needs to know. We want you and your puppy to continue learning beyond puppy classes.

Enroll Your Puppy in the AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy Program – a puppy precursor to the CGC Canine Good Citizen Test! (We offer both classes at several convenient locations.)
