Franchise Times: Pet Adoption Increase Will Mean Rise in Business, Says Hounds Town USA CEO

According to Franchise Times, since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States, more and more people have been coping with the social distancing blues by adopting animals from local shelters. While this is a great idea for those stuck at home and working virtually, it can also be a cause for concern once non-essential businesses reopen and more and more new pet parents head back to work.

Hounds Town USA, a doggy day-care franchise, is looking forward to helping new dog owners bridge the gap between working and being a pet parent once restrictions start to life. “Daycare at Hounds Town is not a luxury, but a necessity…Human customers rely on us, and dogs become addicted to coming to daycare, just like kids get excited about going to the park,” said Hounds Town USA CEO Michael Gould. “We’ve made dog ownership possible for 20 years. That’s what we do.”
