Instinct Dog Behavior & Training
How do I buy my own Instinct Dog Behavior & Training Franchise?
Instinct is a national dog behavior & training franchise that offers positive reinforcement-based boarding and training camps and private lessons for basic manners, obedience, and puppy development as well as behavior modifications for fear, anxiety and aggression issues. Founded in 2009 in NYC, Instinct began franchising in 2018 and is currently partnering with vet behaviorists and behavior consultants across the country to open new locations.
Make a Positive Impact.
Do you want to make an incredible positive impact on the lives of dogs and owners in your community? Through the Instinct franchise model, we're providing potential partners with an exciting opportunity to offer help and hope to local dogs and owners, while working toward a secure future through business ownership.
About
Dogs are family for all of us at Instinct Dog Behavior & Training®. It’s that simple principle that guides us as we help dogs and owners happily co-exist every day. Now, we’re looking for franchise partners to help us bring our vision of A Kinder World through Dog Training™ to thousands more dogs and owners in urban markets across the country.
The Opportunity

- 68% of U.S. households own a pet. 89.7 million of those pets are dogs
- Spending on pets is rising annually in the U.S
- Consumers spend more on companion animals than nearly any other category
- The pet market has more than tripled in size since 1994, growing from $17 billion to over $60 billion in 2015 in the U.S. alone
Picture This
