Scenthound isn’t your average dog grooming shop. We’re a national brand on a mission to make routine wellness care — not just haircuts — a normal part of every dog’s life. Our membership model keeps dogs on a consistent schedule built around S.C.E.N.T. — Skin, Coat, Ears, Nails, and Teeth — the five essentials of dog hygiene. It’s a simple idea that’s reshaping an entire industry, one healthier, happier dog at a time.
We’re also one of the fastest-growing, most-recognized brands in pet care. Scenthound has landed on Entrepreneur’s Franchise 500® list, was named to Franchise Business Review’s Top Franchises for the third year running, took home a Stevie® Award for Fastest-Growing Company, and has been recognized among Inc. Magazine’s fastest-growing private companies in America. In short: this is a brand built by people who know how to build something great — and win awards doing it.
