Step into the world of canine companionship with “Intro to Canines Series,” a specialized class tailored for 4-H youth and their four-legged friends. This program blends essential obedience training with the Canine Good Citizen (CGC) certification, offering a comprehensive approach to building a strong, respectful relationship between youths and their dogs.
