Dog Training in Norristown PA

Since 2007, Wagsworth Manor has built a reputation as a trusted provider of dog training in Norristown PA. Our training approach is built on trust, positive reinforcement, and consistency. Explore our most popular offerings:

Board-n-Trains and Camp-n-Trains:

These immersive programs provide dedicated training time while your dog is with us for daycare or overnight stays. We focus on core commands (sit, down, stay, leave it) and behavior shaping for challenges like jumping or pulling on the leash.

Enrichment Sessions:

Perfect for dogs who thrive on problem-solving or mental activity. These sessions feature scent games, agility activities, puzzle toys, and more to keep your dog’s brain active and sharp.

Puppy Preschool:

Help your pup start strong with a curriculum focused on foundational behaviors, early socialization, and everyday manners like potty training and gentle play.

Private Lessons:

If your dog would benefit from personalized guidance, private sessions with a professional trainer are the ideal option. We’ll tailor the session to your goals and challenges.

Group Dog Training Classes

We also offer dynamic group classes that focus on both foundational skills and advanced training goals:

Wagsworth always takes excellent care of my dogs. Over the Labor Day weekend, I boarded my 1 yo golden retriever puppy Nellie. She did great! Loved getting a couple of emails with pictures to see that she was doing well.

Wagsworth took great care of my pup! She needed special attention as she was recovering from CCL surgery, and Wagsworth ensured she had a great stay and covered her needs without issue. Everyone was incredibly nice, and it was clear they love the doggos. Plus my pup is SUPER shiny and soft after her bath. I will be returning!
