Frequently Asked Questions

Is The Dog Stop growing or shrinking?

The Dog Stop's SBA loan count fell 30% year-over-year. A decline in SBA financing doesn't necessarily mean the brand is shrinking -- franchisees may be using other financing, or SBA lending patterns may have shifted broadly.

How much does it cost to open a The Dog Stop franchise?

We don't have that figure -- investment ranges and fees come from a franchisor's Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD), which this site doesn't parse (see methodology). The average SBA loan size of $732K (314% above the typical Home & Repair Services brand's $177K) is a rough proxy, but SBA loans often cover only part of total investment.

What's the SBA loan default rate for The Dog Stop?

0 of 30 SBA loans to The Dog Stop franchisees (0.0%) have been charged off since FY2020, compared to 2.9% across all Home & Repair Services brands.
