Yesterday Banks the Portuguese Water Dog earned both his AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy & AKC CGC titles. This means he passed 30 total testing criteria including general obedience skills, grooming skills, & social/environmental skills! Wowza!🤩

Quite the accomplishment at under 1 year of age. He has turned into such a great young dog.🐾

Congratulations to Banks & his dedicated owners!!🥳
