AKC now has a new Virtual Home Manners titling program. There are two levels in the program: Virtual Home Manners Puppy (VHMP) for puppies 3 months to 1 year of age and Virtual Home Manners Adult (VHMA) for dogs age 4 months or older.

So how does it work?

It's simple. Check out the AKC's Virtual Home Manners Test Evaluator/Participant Guide by going to the following like to see what the skills and requirements are: https://s3.amazonaws.com/cdn-origin-etr.akc.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/14151445/VHM-Evaluator-and-Participant-Guide-Oct142020.pdf  Once you have taught your dog/puppy the skills needed for the title, you will make a video of your dog demonstrating the skills and upload it to an online video host such as YouTube. Then you will want to come back here and complete the following form and I can review the video for you. The cost to review the video is $10 per title and I will email you an invoice once I receive this completed form. After I get done reviewing your video(s) I will email you so you know your dog passed and attach a signed checklist/video verification form!

From there you will send AKC a copy of the checklist/video verification form and the title application for each title tested along with any fees required by AKC to record the title (currently $25 per title.)

You can find the checklist/application and find out more about what skills are required by going to the following link: https://www.akc.org/products-services/training-programs/canine-good-citizen/akc-family-dog-program/virtual-home-manners/
