All_Dogs_Unleashed Franchise · 2025 FDDAnswer from 2025 FDD Document
Franchisor shall have the option to assume your lease for the Commercial Training Facility premises, such option to be exercised at any time before or within 30 days after expiration or termination of this Agreement. If Franchisor exercises this option, you shall assign to Franchisor or its designee your interest in the lease. If Franchisor or its designee assumes your lease, title to all leasehold improvements will convey to the assignee upon such assignment, without any further consideration. If Franchisor does not exercise its option, you shall modify the Facility premises as may be necessary to distinguish the appearance of the Facility from that of other ALL DOGS UNLEASHED Facilities and shall make such specific additional changes to the Franchised Location as Franchisor may reasonably request for that purpose. Such de-identification must be completed within 60 days after expiration or termination of this Agreement.

What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 All Dogs Unleashed Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees are required to de-identify their facility within a specific timeframe after the franchise agreement expires or is terminated. If All Dogs Unleashed does not exercise its option to assume the lease, the franchisee must modify the facility to differentiate its appearance from other All Dogs Unleashed locations.
The franchisee is responsible for making specific changes to the location as reasonably requested by All Dogs Unleashed for de-identification purposes. This includes removing All Dogs Unleashed signage, logos, and other branding elements from the premises.
The de-identification process must be completed within 60 days after the expiration or termination of the Franchise Agreement. This gives the franchisee a limited time to make the necessary modifications to the facility and ensure it no longer resembles an All Dogs Unleashed franchise. Failing to complete this process within the specified timeframe could result in legal or financial repercussions from the franchisor.
