Petdog Pet

Petdog Pet (派多格), established in 2006, is a comprehensive pet industry service company headquartered in Beijing, China. The company was founded by Li Zhongwei, who serves as the chairman and has been a significant figure in promoting the standardization and branding of China's pet industry. Petdog Pet operates on a franchise business model, providing a wide range of services and products across the pet care value chain.

The company's business covers pet store franchising, pet grooming training, canine training, operational management training, pet product development and sales, live pet sales, and industry-specific IT services. It has established a large network of over 5,000 franchised stores across China and operates several brands, including Petdog, McDun, and Taogou.com. This extensive network is supported by a robust supply chain, which the company developed to ensure quality control over its products. Revenue is generated primarily through franchise fees, sales of their proprietary and distributed pet products, and fees for their various training and educational programs.

Petdog offers a one-stop service model for its franchisees, which includes site selection assistance using data analysis, store design, operational training, and marketing support. The company has also integrated online and offline operations to enhance customer reach and experience. In 2019, the company received a Series A investment of several tens of millions of dollars from Boqii. By 2021, Petdog had indicated potential plans for an IPO, reflecting its significant growth and position in the expanding Chinese pet market.
