What happens if I don't provide All Dogs Unleashed with a copy of the lease?

Based on the 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the consequences of not providing All Dogs Unleashed with a copy of the lease for your franchised location are not explicitly detailed. However, the FDD does state that All Dogs Unleashed has the right to approve the site for the Facility, and if the Facility premises will be occupied pursuant to a commercial lease, All Dogs Unleashed has prescribed certain lease terms and has the right to condition its approval of a proposed site on inclusion of the prescribed lease terms.

Without providing the lease, All Dogs Unleashed cannot ensure that the lease terms align with their requirements. This could lead to a rejection of the site, preventing you from opening your All Dogs Unleashed franchise at that location. Additionally, the landlord agrees to furnish All Dogs Unleashed with copies of any and all letters and notices sent to Franchisee pertaining to the Lease and the Premises at the same time that such letters and notices are sent to Franchisee. This clause ensures that All Dogs Unleashed is informed of any issues or notices related to the lease, allowing them to protect their interests and the integrity of the All Dogs Unleashed brand.

To fully understand the implications of failing to provide a lease copy, a prospective All Dogs Unleashed franchisee should ask the franchisor directly about the specific repercussions outlined in the franchise agreement. Clarification on this point is crucial to avoid potential conflicts and ensure compliance with All Dogs Unleashed's requirements.
