Welcome to Rewarding Dogs - Inverness

I would like to thank Ray and Mike for helping me to feel more confident and for reassuring me that I am on the correct path to training my working cocker spaniel, Billy. Ray spent an afternoon with Billy and me showing me how to fine-tune loose lead walking and giving me tips on when… Read more “Billy – Working Cocker Spaniel”

I cannot recommend Mike at Rewarding Dogs and his training programme highly enough.. I have had my rescue hound from Cyprus for nearly six years now. I was warned by a rescue charity before I had her, that I would probably never be able to let her off lead and she may never have a… Read more “Indie”

Willow and I are doing really well, she is becoming more settled all the time. Leaving the house is calm and she will stand to let me put on her coat and dry her off. Lead walking continues to improve. She will move on after greeting another dog and can walk past if the other… Read more “Willow – Patterdale Terrier X Border Collie”

Our session with Mike was fantastic. The lesson started out with a consultation which went in depth on Monty’s current behaviour and what needed to change.  The tips and tricks that Mike provided over the session has given a complete change to Monty’s behaviour. Our daily routines and dog walks are now such a breeze.… Read more “Monty – Caucasian Shepherd X Rottweiler”

Dubhgie is doing really well, huge improvement with recall, lead walking and keeping attention on me and not other distractions (people etc). Working on not chasing animals is ongoing but good progression and I’m confident we’ll get there with more work, time and patience.  Coming through to have a follow up session has been so… Read more “Dubhgie – Working Cocker Spaniel”

Hi Mike Thank you for your advice. I am pleased to say Archie and Ruby are now best of friends. I can’t believe the change in Archie over the last few years and even the last few months. He is an absolute pleasure to take out now and really is like a different dog, in… Read more “Best of friends”

Mike made miracles with our Podenco, Mina. in a few days she’s a different dog. Prey drive off the chart but now comes back almost instantly after Mike’s training. I would never have believed it. Mike Granthan added: She’s a lovely dog who now prefers to be with Mum and Dad rather than look for… Read more “Mina the Podenco”

I approached Mike – who had been recommended to me – to assist with strong chase instincts and biting an 8 year old girl. I had been formally charged under the dangerous dogs act and a court appearance beckoned. To me, my 2 silver Labradors could do no wrong but it soon became evident that… Read more “Millie and Molly – Silver Labradors”

Dexter is a 3 year old Rottie-x who we adopted a year ago. He’s had a rough start in life – battered over the head which left him totally blind – thrown out of a car – months in a rescue in Spain – moved to a UK rescue then adopted – spent time in… Read more “Dexter the Rottweiler X”

Hi Mike I am just writing to thank you for your help with Clue. He hasn’t bitten my son (or any of us) since I spoke to you, which is absolutely amazing. The long lead is really helpful (if not a bit hard on poor Clue, as it gets stuck under doors for much of… Read more “Clue the Cocker Spaniel”
