What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 All Dogs Unleashed Franchise Disclosure Document, payments for training materials are made to All Dogs Unleashed itself. The cost for these materials ranges from $100 to $150. These materials may include training manuals, videos, exercises, manager checklists, POSI materials, POS manuals, labor scheduling systems, budget materials, Human Resource Manuals, Marketing Manuals, and a New Facility Opening Manual.
All Dogs Unleashed reserves the right to charge $50 per attendee to cover the cost of training materials. The lower estimate of $100 assumes that the Operating Principal will also serve as the General Manager, and both the Operating Principal and Assistant Manager will attend the initial training. The higher estimate of $150 applies if the Operating Principal does not serve as the General Manager, and the Operating Principal, General Manager, and Assistant Manager all attend the initial training.
This means that the cost of training materials will vary depending on the number of attendees and the roles they fulfill within the franchise. It is important for prospective franchisees to factor in these potential costs when budgeting for their initial investment. Franchisees should also clarify with All Dogs Unleashed whether the training material fees are per person or a flat fee, and what specific materials are included.
