Tip Top K9 Franchise Opportunity
Our Mission
At the local level, Tip Top K9 caters to the modern family that needs a well-trained and obedient dog. We are committed to training a well-trained pet that families can take everywhere with them!
At the corporate level, Tip Top K9 Franchising is helping people learn how to train dogs through our Tip Top Method of Dog Training and then support them with all the support they need to run their own business.
Our History
Ryan Wimpey started dog training in 2008 and then started Tip Top K9 in 2010. After working on his training system for 10+ years, he began franchising in 2019. Today, there are 19 locations across the United States.
Our Unique Selling Proposition
Our system of training is based on classical conditioning instead of operant conditioning such as reward or punishment-based training that most trainers use. This allows us to transfer our training to the client better than other trainers! Most trainers can train dogs, but our system is able to be transferred to our clients seamlessly, and the dog responds as if it was the trainer in just 20-30 minutes!
What Sets Us Apart
- Call Center Support: We answer your phones.
- Marketing Support: We run your ads.
- Billing Support: We charge your clients.
- Training Support: We train you.
- Product Support: We source deep discounts for you.
- Ongoing Business Coaching: We stay with you!
Key Highlights
We have the top or second-rated dog training company on Google today in Arkansas, Oklahoma, Texas, Arizona, Utah, Tennessee, and Michigan. This is due to everyone using the same system and over-the-top customer service that is just not present in the dog training industry. Google Tip Top K9 and one of those states and see for yourself! No other company has this much market penetration, but that’s because everything we do is systemized so we deliver great results time after time.
Additional Benefits
- Dog Training Franchise: We help people with no experience in dog training or business management become professional dog trainers and run their very own successful businesses.
- Hands-On Training: Our 6-week training program is three times longer than most others, giving you all the skills you need to train dogs and manage your business with confidence.
- Basic Requirements: We’re looking for energetic people who can multitask, have basic coordination, and, most importantly, love dogs!
- Proven Success: Since we started in 2010 and began franchising in 2019, we’ve trained over 38,000 dogs across the U.S. We’re proud to be the highest-rated dog trainers in many of the states where we operate.
- Comprehensive Support: We take care of 80% of the back-office work for you! From day one, we handle phone calls, scheduling, billing, payment plans, and even your online marketing. Plus, you’ll get access to our wholesale supply company to buy 90% of what you need to run your business cheaper than you could buy directly from the manufacturer.
