What is the deadline for a Canine Dimensions franchisee to notify the franchisor of certain charges or convictions?

According to Canine Dimensions's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee must notify Canine Dimensions within two business days if the franchisee or any of its owners is charged with or convicted of a felony, fraud, a crime involving moral turpitude, theft, burglary, animal cruelty, or breaking and entering. This requirement ensures that Canine Dimensions is promptly informed of any legal issues that could potentially impact the reputation or operation of the franchise.

This notification requirement allows Canine Dimensions to take appropriate action, which may include assessing the situation, providing support to the franchisee, or taking steps to protect the brand's reputation. The quick notification timeframe is crucial for Canine Dimensions to address any potential risks or liabilities associated with the charges or convictions.

For a prospective Canine Dimensions franchisee, this means maintaining awareness of any legal issues involving themselves or their owners and promptly reporting them to the franchisor. Failure to comply with this notification requirement could result in penalties or other consequences as outlined in the franchise agreement. This clause highlights the importance of transparency and adherence to legal and ethical standards within the Canine Dimensions franchise system.
