Canine Good Citizen Certifiers in Indiana
(Note not all of these people are doodle friendly. They are part of AKC and some are not all that welcoming to the doodles. It SHOULDN'T matter, but we have seen a few that were very harsh with their requirements with some dogs and not others.)

[Moose&Mica]

We take obedience training at First Friend K9 with Bruce (and agility training with Jody) up in Fishers. I would say this training facility is definitely Doodle friendly (as there are a number of doodle up there). The folks there are a great team. The longer we train there the more we like it. Moose has taken the GCC test three times and Mica has taken it twice from Bruce. I'm happy (and relieved) to say both dogs passed their tests each time. :)
