Fila Stability Test (FST)
The Fila Stability Test (FST) was developed to use in lieu of, or in addition to, the Canine Good Citizen (CGC) test, to demonstrate that a protection/guardian dog has a sound mind, as well as protective instinct. The test was developed by a group of trainers, CGC evaluators, breeders and approved evaluators.
In the FST, there are several steps for evaluation, where the dog encounters friendly strangers, distractions, unsure footing, and agitation. The dog should have basic obedience prior to the test.
