What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 All Dogs Unleashed Franchise Disclosure Document, a fee of $50 per attendee may be charged to cover the costs of course materials. These materials may include various training manuals, videos, exercises, manager checklists, POSI (Point of Sale Information) materials, POS manuals, labor scheduling system, budget materials, Human Resource Manuals, Marketing Manuals, and a New Facility Opening Manual. This fee is separate from tuition, which is waived for up to three attendees in the initial training program.
This means that while the initial training is free for up to three individuals, franchisees should budget an additional $50 per person for these essential learning resources. For additional attendees beyond the initial three, All Dogs Unleashed reserves the right to charge a tuition fee, in addition to the cost of materials.
Prospective franchisees should consider the cost of these materials as part of their overall training expenses. While $50 may seem like a nominal fee, it's important to factor in all potential costs associated with training, including travel, lodging, dining, and potential tuition fees for additional attendees. Understanding the specific materials covered by this fee can help franchisees prepare their staff effectively and manage their initial investment.
