When you join a dog training franchise here's how it typically goes. You send in an online application and they do their due diligence on you. If they like what they see they ask you for $60,000 as a training fee. After the fee has been paid you'll also pay a monthly royalty to the organization on your sales.

At mango dogs we use what's called a licensing agreement instead of a franchising agreement and the major difference is that there's no upfront cost for you to get started.

So here's how it goes. You'll fill out the evaluation form on this website and it will be sent directly to me (Ted). If you fill out the form you will get a response back either way after you've been considered (expect 36-48 hours). If Moe and I feel as though you'll be a good fit to start a mango dog's location you will start to have further discussions with myself and Moe.

Then we'll progress to having a criminal background check being done. Assuming you pass that screening, your next step will be to start doing your online training.

Our online training is currently over 65 hours+ of videos (and constantly growing) showing you how we do what we do on a day-to-day basis. It's got books to read and videos to watch that you can watch also all of the documents that you'll need to get your business started. After consuming the content you will have 60 days to complete two tests online. (So at that point you will have invested at least two - three hours a day into your online training)

Assuming you finish the online training and pass your tests you can then transition into your physical training which will be done in Charlotte North Carolina with Moe Zaki. You should expect to spend at least a week in Charlotte NC with Moe, sitting in on all of his evaluations and lessons. Then you'll be ready to head home and open your location.

We even help you start your business off on the best foot by introducing you to our accountant who will help you legally open your business, and file your taxes!
