Under what conditions can a Dog Haus franchisee issue coupons or discounts?

According to Dog Haus's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee is not allowed to issue coupons or discounts of any kind at their restaurant unless they have written approval from Dog Haus. This approval can be withheld at Dog Haus's discretion.

This policy ensures that all Dog Haus locations maintain consistent pricing and promotional strategies. It prevents individual franchisees from potentially undermining the brand's overall marketing efforts or engaging in price wars that could devalue the brand.

For a prospective franchisee, this means they will need to adhere strictly to Dog Haus's marketing and pricing guidelines. They cannot independently decide to offer discounts or coupons to attract customers without prior authorization. This could limit a franchisee's flexibility in responding to local market conditions or competitive pressures, but it also provides a structured marketing framework to follow. Franchisees should discuss with Dog Haus what types of marketing initiatives are typically approved and what factors influence those decisions.
