Capitalize on Two Segments of The Lucrative Pet Industry With One Unrivaled Franchise

The DogSmith is the nation’s most cutting-edge dog training and pet care franchise system. Led by internationally renowned dog trainer and animal behaviorist, Niki Tudge, all DogSmith franchise owners practice a state-of-the-art dog training methodology that is highly effective, scientifically proven, and most importantly, based on positive, humane training techniques. Although you don’t need previous industry experience to join us, DogSmith franchise owners typically have an entrepreneurial spirit and a true love of dogs. Our proven business model gives you the chance to build a successful business that you’re passionate about, from the comfort of your home. This low-overhead opportunity doesn’t require a large staff, costly equipment or commercial leases, which keeps your operating expenses down and provides you with freedom and flexibility.

Dog Ownership Numbers Are Through The Roof! 
Forty-five percent of U.S. households have at least one dog. Last year Americans spent over $49 billion on pet products and services. Today more than ever, dogs are part of our family. The DogSmith is dedicated to helping families assimilate their dogs into their households. By providing instruction, guidance and a deeper understanding of the relationship between owners and their four-legged children, The DogSmith helps families create the relationship with their dogs that they’ve always wanted.

Dog Training & Pet Care- Our Two-in-One Business Model Results in Long-Term Clients
As a DogSmith franchisee, you’ll be uniquely positioned to offer industry-leading dog training services AND a variety of highly profitable pet care services. We’ve learned from experience that once you’ve done a great job training someone’s dog, there’s nobody else they’d rather have care for their dog. That’s why we decided to become the nation’s first dog training franchise to also offer pet care services. With our business model, you’ll have the luxury of capitalizing on not one, but two rapidly expanding segments of the pet industry. By cross-marketing dog training and pet care services, you’ll be positioned to generate multiple streams of income and repeat business. Some of the pet care services you’ll offer include:

• Dog walking
• Home visits
• Medicine administration
• Pet transportation services
