The Dog Stop Announces New Location Coming to Lake Charles
August 19, 2024 // Franchising.com // PITTSBURGH, Pa. - The Dog Stop is poised to open a new location in Lake Charles. Located at 3507 Ryan Street, Lake Charles, LA 70605, the new facility is the brand’s fifth location in Louisiana. The doors opened for services in August with a Grand Opening Celebration set to take place in September, promising a full range of services designed to enrich every facet of a dog’s life.
To ensure the highest quality service for dogs in the community, The Dog Stop Lake Charles will be welcoming the talented team from Ace and Chanti’s. The local grooming salon closed their doors this summer, and will be joining The Dog Stop’s growing family and supporting the new facility. The brand-new one-stop-shop for dog care fills a niche in the market with their all-inclusive services, including holistic retail, luxury boarding accommodations, an interactive and social daycare experience, spa-like grooming, and more. With four other successful locations in Louisiana, The Dog Stop has established themselves in the state, and is now ready to provide Lake Charles pet parents with their high-quality services.
“We are thrilled to be welcoming the incredible team from Ace and Chanti’s to The Dog Stop community,” said Shawn Nunez, local owner of The Dog Stop Lake Charles. “This is an amazing opportunity to maintain their expertise and uphold the sense of community they’ve built with loyal dog owners. We look forward to opening our doors to returning furry friends and new ones, and commit to upholding the high-quality care and services they have come to expect.”
Nunez, a Lake Charles local, chose to open The Dog Stop after his community was hit by a major hurricane. Like many others, he adopted a dog during the COVID-19 pandemic, only a month before the hurricane struck. Nunez and his dog, Zeus, suffered damage to their home, and had to live out of town while it was repaired. During that time, Nunez sought to find a place that Zeus could go to while he was at work, and was introduced to dog boarding and daycare. Recognizing a need for these services in his own community, he began researching options and discovered The Dog Stop. He was impressed by the brand’s streamlined model and commitment to excellent dog care services, and hopes to eventually open more locations in the Southwest Louisiana and Southeast Texas communities.
“I chose to join The Dog Stop team to fill a gap in the dog care industry in my home town of Lake Charles,” said Nunez. “The brand’s proven business structure as an all-inclusive facility is extremely beneficial and rewarding. The ability of having a location where relationships can be built between local dog owners and The Dog Stop team is unlike anything we have in the community, and I look forward to bringing this to Lake Charles.”
Owned and operated by dog people since 2009, The Dog Stop understands the complex process involved in dog care and knows that there is no such thing as a one size fits all approach. At The Dog Stop, expert staff at each location stay up-to-date on the ever-changing science that applies to dog care, behavior, grooming, and nutrition. A one-stop-shop also offering pet care products and supplies, each item on its shelves is the latest and greatest in its respective category, ensuring that each dog who stops by receives the very best treatment.
“Partnering with passionate franchisees is key to our mission and expansion plans,” said Jesse Coslov, CEO and Co-Founder of The Dog Stop. “We are thrilled to now be partnering with Shawn.”
