Each video evaluation is $10, and includes a "re-do" option should your first attempt need some tweaking.

If you plan on doing similar level Trick testing for AKC and DMWYD there is a Multiple evaluation option. Since the Conditioning, DMWYD Trick and AKC Trick levels have some duplication, you might find you are able to use some of the same video clips for more than one title.  (You will still need a separate video link for each title for ease of evaluation, even if parts of the video are identical to another submission.)

Once purchased, you have three months to complete your video(s) and submit them for review

We have several types of title evaluations available to you.

While AKC requires that Star Puppy and Canine Good Citizen Tests be done in person, AKC has similar programs for adult dogs and puppies that CAN be evaluated by video, and your dog can earn an AKC Title. (Your dog needs to be registered with AKC to get the title.)

To register your purebred dog without papers from the breeder as a Purebred Alternative Listing or PAL, click here.

AKC VIRTUAL HOME MANNERS PUPPY: Similar to the Star Puppy test is the Virtual Home Manners Puppy. This test evaluates the puppy on foundation in-home manners. This test is a practical assessment of your puppy's progress to becoming a well behaved family member.

To earn the title, submit a short video link (You Tube or Vimeo, or similar) of your puppy performing the 10 test items according to the instructions in the AKC VHMP Participant Guide, The video items do not need to be completed in one sitting. Email the video link and completed test form to [email protected].

I will evaluate the video, submit my results to AKC, send you feedback and the signed form to submit your title if your puppy passes! If your puppy does not pass, I'll give you suggestions on how to correct the missing pieces so you can try again. You can re-submit one more time for no extra payment.

AKC VIRTUAL HOME MANNERS ADULT: Similar to the Canine Good Citizen test is the Virtual Home Manners Adult. This test evaluates the dog on in-home manners. This test is a practical assessment of your dog as a well behaved family member in the home, where he spends most of his time. This test is more practical than the CGC Test because your dog spends most of his time at home, which is where he needs to be well-mannered in order to avoid causing problems with neighbors, landlords, visitors and family.

To earn the title, submit a short video link (You Tube or Vimeo, or similar) of your dog performing the 10 test items according to the instructions in the AKC VHMA Participant Guide, The video items do not need to be completed in one sitting. Email the video link and completed test form to [email protected].

I will evaluate the video, submit my results to AKC, send you feedback and the signed form to submit your title if your dog passes! If your dog does not pass, I'll give you suggestions on how to correct the missing pieces so you can try again. You can re-submit one more time for no extra payment.

Trick training is a fun way to bond with your dog or puppy and improve overall responsiveness and manners. All Levels of AKC Trick Dog Titles can be evaluated by video. This allows you to train at home, and have ready access to any props you wish to use for your tricks! Currently there are FIVE Levels of Trick Titles with AKC. Novice, Intermediate, Advanced, Performer, and Elite Performer.

AKC does not allow repetition of tricks, so choose your tricks carefully for the easier levels. If you have a favorite or more complicated trick, save it for the more advanced levels! Titles must be earned in order.

Puppies as young as four months can begin to earn AKC Trick Titles

To earn AKC Trick Dog Titles, you will need to read and follow the AKC directions for Trick Dog Titles, and download the forms for your level. An overview of the Trick Dog program and the required forms can be found here 

To earn the title, submit a short compilation video link (You Tube or Vimeo, or similar) of your dog performing the 10 test items according to the instructions in the AKC Trick Dog Guide, The video items do not need to be completed in one sitting. Email the video link and completed test form to [email protected].

Do More With Your Dog has four fun comprehensive programs that revolve around trick training to challenge your dog mentally and physically. In this program, your dog does NOT need to be registered with AKC and is not affiliated with AKC.

ANIMAL ACTORS: The Animal Actor program applies beginning to advanced tricks and behaviors to a media production setting.

The Animal Actors Levels are: 1) Black Card - Photo Shoot, 2) White Card - Actor 3) Blue Card - Film 4) Yellow Card - Leading Role 5) Red Card - Professional

To earn your DMWYD Titles, create a single compilation video using You Tube, Vimeo, or similar, and email the link to [email protected] In the body of the email, list the tricks you are submitting. When I have evaluated your tricks, you will get a reply email with feedback. If your video passes, you will proceed to the DMWYD website to order your title. They will confirm with me that the level was successfully completed. If any part of your video needs tweaking, I'll tell you how to fix, it and you may resubmit once for no additional charge.
