Puptqe Announces Expansion to Texas with First Location in The Woodlands/Spring

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Puptqe, named Pet Retailer of the Year by the Pet Innovation Awards, today announced its expansion into Texas with its first location planned for The Woodlands/Spring area, serving the greater Houston community.

Founded in 2023, Puptqe was created to celebrate the bond between dogs and their owners. Since opening its first store in Southern California, the brand has built a growing membership base across multiple states and continues to expand through franchising.

The upcoming Woodlands location will introduce Puptqe’s in-store model to Texas, bringing together curated retail, community events, and its PupPass+ membership program. The concept centers on creating a space where dog owners can spend time with their dogs in a setting designed for both, emphasizing interaction, routine visits, and connection.

In addition to retail, Puptqe locations host a range of in-store experiences, including private events, themed gatherings, and member-focused activations designed to encourage repeat visits and strengthen local community ties.

“We’re looking forward to bringing Puptqe to Texas and becoming part of the community in The Woodlands,” said Courtney Honda, President. “This expansion is made possible by franchise partners who align with our vision and are committed to delivering the same level of care and experience that defines Puptqe.”

Slava Borisov, CEO, added, “Our goal is to maintain a consistent experience as we grow. That starts with the right partners and clear standards, so each location feels familiar while still reflecting its local community.”

The Woodlands/Spring location marks the company’s first step into the Texas market, with additional territories currently available across other regions and states.

Additional details, including opening timelines, local partnerships, and upcoming events, will be announced in the coming months.

Puptqe encourages those in the Houston area to stay connected as the company prepares for its Texas debut. For franchise inquiries, please contact Director of Franchise at [e-mail].
