PRLog (Press Release) - Mar 23, 2009 -
Despite a sagging economy, consumer spending on pet products and services remains strong. Consumers may be cutting back in other areas, but when it comes to buying toys, services and supplies for Fluffy and Fido, the numbers are rising. People will often cut back on purchasing items for themselves before they'll let their beloved dogs and cats go without. Businesses and franchises that offer pet products and services
(http://www.franchisesolutions.com/pet_services_franchise ...) are faring particularly well and proving to be among the most recession-resistant companies.

In 2008, Americans affinity for spoiling their pets amounted to approximately $43 billion in consumer spending on pet products and services. Aside from consumer electronics, pet products are the fastest growing segment of the retail industry. An overall rise in the number of pets in the U.S., and increased spending per pet are among the factors contributing to the pet industry's explosive growth. In addition to the success of pet-related retail businesses, franchises that offer grooming, dog training and daycare services are also thriving. Aspiring franchisees interested in entering the pet business typically aren't required to have previous pet industry experience.

Entrepreneur magazine ranked Aussie Pet Mobile (http://www.franchisesolutions.com/franchise/Aussie_Pet_M ...) the #1 mobile pet grooming franchise in the industry in their 2008 "Franchise 500" issue. Prospective Aussie Pet Mobile franchisees don't need to have a background in the pet industry and benefit from owning a franchise with little to no competition from businesses of similar scale. The Aussie Pet Mobile business package includes training in all aspects of running the business, and the state-of-the-art Mercedes vans where the grooming is performed come fully-equipped and ready for business. The home-based business model offers franchisees a flexible schedule and features a high rate of repeat customers.

Busy pet owners that are often away from home for extended periods of time rely on the services of dog daycare centers that provide both care and entertainment. Camp Bow Wow (http://www.franchisesolutions.com/franchise/Camp_Bow_Wow.cfm), the leading dog daycare and boarding franchise, offers a safe, fun, and upscale environment for dogs to relax, exercise, and receive love and attention. Camp Bow Wow franchisees receive extensive corporate training, support, and ongoing assistance designed to help them run a successful business. Franchisees that partner with Camp Bow Wow also benefit from owning a business that enjoys the most widespread brand recognition of any dog daycare and boarding franchise in North America.

In addition to opportunities in the pet products and services industry, Franchise Solutions' business buying directory features business and franchise opportunities in a wide range of categories. The website also provides the latest business ownership news, articles about franchising, tools to connect with companies of interest, as well as additional resources for prospective business owners.
