The Puppy Center - Bradford Dog Training

Mary has a gift for working with puppies and their humans. Our puppy attended puppy day school, completed two series of puppy classes, and has attended several puppy socials. Mary is so knowledgeable, professional, personal, and super caring and patient with puppies (and their humans). Our puppy gained lots of new basic obedience skills in class and improved bite inhibition through puppy play. Mary provides a wealth of valuable information to help support puppies and their humans, and her genuine love and care for each puppy in her program really shines through in her work. I would highly recommend Mary and The Puppy Center to anyone raising a puppy.

Love Mary! She is a great trainer and knows how pups act (in class and at home). Mary is great at teaching classes with multiple pups but also keeps in mind the personal aspect of each pup and family. My husband and I have been going to her since puppy kindergarten! Our puppy loves going and especially loves Mary. Can’t forget to mention puppy play night is very exciting and adorable! I highly recommend going here for your training needs.

Mary is amazing! I am so happy to have found her day school. It's not daycare, it's a school with a program built to train my puppy to be her best and give her tools to thrive throughout her life. Mary's positive and gentle training methods have given my puppy Bruna so much confidence. I have been bringing her for a few months and it's amazing to see how much she's learned and grown. Bruna plays with her pals, she gets training and I get a happy and tired pup at the end of the day. (sometimes she doesn't even want to leave!) We also go to group obedience classes once a week - again I can't say enough about the positive experience during class. I've learned as much as my puppy in her classes - Mary takes the time to explain everything to allow me to understand how to further our training at home. I've had dogs my whole life and never found a place like The Puppy Center. It is an amazing resource to have here in Rochester. Thank you Mary (and Billy).

Mary Bradford is a wonderful, experienced trainer. She is gentle but very effective with the dogs she trains. She has an extensive background training puppies and the puppies love her! We call her the dog whisperer! We have a very energetic, strong willed puppy. There was a moment when I was not sure we would be able to keep him, but his training with Mary is really having a very positive impact on him. We are so grateful because we are really crazy about him! And he is crazy about Mary! When I drop him off at Puppy School, he has no hesitations and doesn’t even look back at me. He loves it! Lucy D.
