Hot Diggity Dog Resort lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)
We do not publish a litigation answer for Hot Diggity Dog Resort. Item 3 could not be read reliably from this particular filing, and a claim that a company has no legal history is not one to make on a failed parse — so we say we do not know instead. Item 3 of the FDD itself is the place to check; the methodology page explains what we do and do not machine-read.
Hot Diggity Dog Resort closures & failure rate

Below is what Hot Diggity Dog Resort's most recent filing shows, and whether it's normal for a pet services of this kind.
The closest thing an FDD has to a failure rate is Item 20 — outlet openings, closures, terminations and non-renewals, reported by the franchisor. Hot Diggity Dog Resort's outlet tables are read directly from the FDD in the full report. The actual closure and termination counts, and how Hot Diggity Dog Resort's churn ranks against pet services peers, are in the full report.
