What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to All Dogs Unleashed's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, All Dogs Unleashed will notify franchisees of changes to the System. The System includes the addition, deletion, and modification of operating procedures, products, and services. All Dogs Unleashed will notify the franchisee of any such System changes. The franchisee must implement any System changes upon receipt of notice from All Dogs Unleashed and complete their implementation within the time frame All Dogs Unleashed specifies.
This means that All Dogs Unleashed has the right to modify various aspects of the franchise, and franchisees are obligated to comply with these changes at their own expense. The method of royalty fee payment would be considered an operating procedure. Franchisees must be prepared to adapt to these changes in a timely manner.
While the FDD excerpt specifies that All Dogs Unleashed will notify franchisees of system changes, it does not detail the specific methods of notification (e.g., email, written notice, etc.). A prospective franchisee should ask All Dogs Unleashed about their standard communication methods for important updates and changes to the franchise system.
