PET WANTS FDD (Franchise Disclosure Document) — 2026

The FDD is the 23-item legal disclosure every U.S. franchisor must hand you at least 14 days before you sign or pay anything (FTC Franchise Rule, 16 CFR 436). PET WANTS's most recent FDD tracked here was filed in 2026 as a multistate filing — and because registration-state filings are public records, you can read it free, without giving a broker your phone number.
