FRANCHISOR IN DEPTH: JDog®️ Junk Removal & Hauling and JDog®️

Veteran-Owned Business Creates Employment Opportunities for Veterans and Family Members JDog®️ Junk Removal & Hauling and JDog®️ Carpet Cleaning & Floor Care franchise systems empower Veterans and their families to enter business ownership, combating high Veteran unemployment rates.

Every year, nearly 200,000 Veterans struggle to find a job after military service, with just 25% of servicemembers having a job lined up in preparation for their exit, according to the Pew Research Center. The transition from military service to civilian life is notoriously difficult as Veterans adjust to new ways of life and consider educational and career opportunities once their service is complete. As hordes of servicemembers approach this transition without job security or knowledge of how skills developed during their military service may translate to civilian jobs, hundreds of thousands of Veterans find themselves separated from the military with no employment prospects. JDog Brands, the franchisor behind JDog® Junk Removal & Hauling and JDog® Carpet Cleaning & Floor Care, was founded by Army Veteran Jerry Flanagan
