Start a Scenthound Franchise

In an industry that is primarily focused on haircuts, Scenthound is breaking down barriers to the general wellbeing of dogs in a supportive and compassionate atmosphere in order to provide the best possible service to our customers and their humans.

Scenthound has developed a concept that customers can rely on for all of their routine dog grooming needs – basic cuts, skin, fur, ears, nails and teeth.

American pet consumers spend $ 95 million annually on loved ones, including their 90 million dogs – it’s big business. We offer a lower cost membership model and are resistant to technological change (Amazon is not replacing pet services) or economic downturns (we still spend money on our pets).

We are passionate about puppies

We started this business because we honestly care about every dog ​​we meet. We know dogs are happiest when they are clean and healthy, and we know from experience in the industry that dogs don’t always get the basic care they need. We saw an opportunity to change that and jumped at it.

We are an up and coming brand on the ground floor with Proof of concept by our 4 company-owned units. We also have a strong claim to income from item 19 in our FDD.

Training and support

Scenthound is a practical company and we’re looking for franchisees who share that spirit. We offer extensive training at one of our locations in Jupiter, Florida, teaching franchisees how to best care for our fluffy customers.

We also provide full on-going support in everything from training staff to localization and participation in community events. We’re a big group, after all, and we want each of our franchisees to have the best opportunity to be a positive force in the lives of dogs and their people.
