I, Eddie, would like everyone at YT to know that I am now a Canine Good Citizen. My dad saw an advertisement for a test at the local doggie school and decided he'd give it a shot even though I haven't been practicing.
Dad always turns into "pageant dad" when these things come up. He panicked because "grooming" was one of the categories and I've been looking a little scruffy. So he got up after 4 hours' sleep and tossed me into the bathtub!
Then he clipped my nails and pulled out the electric clippers!
Believe me, he has no idea what he's doing with them.
Dad was telling Mom that he was sure I was gonna fail because I get jumpy when loud noises surprise me, and that's one of the 10 skills I had to pass to get my card. But I decided to show everybody that I am now an adult and not afraid of nothing.
Well, not much.
I passed all 10 skills, and the judges said I was one of the best dogs out there! Next stop, my Therapy Dog card. Whatever that is!
Here's me with my certificate and a copy of my report card. I think it means I'm now a college graduate.
