To what extent is All Dogs Unleashed's right to establish pricing requirements limited?

According to All Dogs Unleashed's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, All Dogs Unleashed has the right to establish pricing requirements for its franchisees. Specifically, All Dogs Unleashed can set maximum, minimum, or other pricing requirements for the services and products that franchisees offer. However, this right is limited by applicable law, meaning that All Dogs Unleashed must comply with all laws and regulations regarding pricing.

This means that as a franchisee, you must adhere to the pricing guidelines set by All Dogs Unleashed, but those guidelines themselves must be legally compliant. This could include laws related to price fixing, price discrimination, or other anti-competitive practices. It is important to note that the FDD does not specify which laws are applicable, so franchisees should be aware of federal, state, and local regulations that may affect pricing decisions.

This pricing control allows All Dogs Unleashed to maintain brand consistency and competitiveness across all franchise locations. However, franchisees should be aware of their rights and responsibilities regarding pricing and seek legal counsel if they have concerns about the legality of All Dogs Unleashed's pricing requirements. Franchisees should also stay informed about changes in applicable laws that could affect pricing strategies.
