Training:
Our franchise trainers have trained over 50,000 dogs. Our systems are more effective because we don’t require the owner to have a “tool” to continue to train their dog after we leave. The leadership methodology is easy to learn (no previous dog training is required) and allows a new franchisee to produce revenue on their very first visit. As an added bonus we train new franchisees in their home territory, at no additional cost, which ensures a faster launch.
