Business Experience Requirements |

Experience | Dogs Rule Resort embraces the very highest standards of animal care, and we�re seeking individuals who share our values. A discriminating brand in the pet-care industry, we�re highly selective in choosing potential franchisee candidates. To be considered as a candidate, you must love dogs and possess well-developed people skills. The ideal candidate will also have a background in sales, good marketing sense, strong sales skills, and excellent customer service abilities. You must be mature and stable, with high personal standards of honesty and integrity. Former small business or pet-care experience will be considered a plus but is not a requirement. Should you be awarded a Dogs Rule Resort franchise, membership in the American Boarding Kennel Association will be required. | |
