Can Hydrodog change the functions or components of the Business Management System?

According to Hydrodog's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Hydrodog has the right to modify the Business Management System. Specifically, Hydrodog may change, alter, or amend the functions, components, System Standards, Computer System, Purchase Order System, Technology Fund, and any other aspect of the Business Management System from time to time.

This means that a Hydrodog franchisee must be prepared for potential changes to the technology and systems they use to manage their business. These changes could include new software, hardware, or procedures. While the FDD does not specify how often these changes might occur, franchisees should budget for potential costs associated with these updates.

It is important for prospective franchisees to understand that these changes are at Hydrodog's discretion. While the FDD does not detail the reasons for such changes, they are likely intended to improve efficiency, maintain system-wide consistency, or adapt to new technologies. Franchisees should inquire about the typical frequency and cost of these changes during their due diligence process to better understand the financial implications.
