Obedience and Behavior


Obedience Classes
Our teaching method is based on kindness and respect. We use positive reinforcement such as praise, toys, playtime or treats to motivate, reward and correct behaviors.

Here at the Humane Society we offer a wide variety of canine courses for you and your dog's needs. To learn about each of these unique opportunities click HERE.

Behavior Consults
One reason an animal comes to Humane Society of West Michigan is because of their behaviors. We currently offer behavioral counseling to help you with specific areas of concern. Please click HERE for more information.
