Is an All Dogs Unleashed franchisee required to renovate and refurbish the facility as a condition of renewal?

According to All Dogs Unleashed's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees are required to renovate and refurbish their facilities as a condition of renewal. To renew the franchise agreement for two additional 5-year terms, the franchisee must meet several conditions.

Specifically, the franchisee must provide notice of their intent to renew, be in compliance with the franchise agreement, satisfy any outstanding financial obligations to All Dogs Unleashed, and demonstrate that they have the right to remain in possession of the facility premises. Additionally, franchisees must comply with the then-current qualifications and training requirements, release All Dogs Unleashed from all prior claims, and ensure their owners also release the company from such claims.

Finally, the franchisee must sign a successor franchise agreement and pay a renewal fee. The disclosure document notes that the new franchise agreement may have materially different terms and conditions than the original agreement. This is a fairly standard practice in franchising, as franchisors periodically update their agreements to reflect changes in the market, legal requirements, or the All Dogs Unleashed business model.
