Where can I find information about assignment of the Central Bark Doggy Day Care franchise?

According to Central Bark Doggy Day Care's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Item 23 discusses the franchisee's obligation to obtain prior written consent from the franchisor before assigning their lease or subletting the franchise location. This means a franchisee cannot transfer their rights or obligations under the lease to another party without Central Bark Doggy Day Care's approval.

This requirement is typical in franchising, as franchisors want to maintain control over who operates within their system and where their businesses are located. By requiring consent, Central Bark Doggy Day Care can ensure that any new operator meets their standards and that the location remains suitable for the business.

For a prospective Central Bark Doggy Day Care franchisee, this means that if they decide to sell their franchise or move locations, they will need to seek approval from Central Bark Doggy Day Care. This process may involve submitting an application, providing financial information, and undergoing a review process. The franchisor has the right to refuse the assignment or sublease if they do not believe it is in the best interest of the Central Bark Doggy Day Care system.
