1.  ORGANIZATION, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization and Nature of Operations

All-American Pet Company, Inc. produces healthy products for dogs, with the core product being super premium dog food. We produce, market and sell our super-premium dog food under the brand names Grrrnola™ Natural Dog Food, BowWow Breakfast Cereal™, and a full line of super premium dog nutritional bars that are portable, convenient and healthy.

All-American Pet Company, Inc. was incorporated in New York in 2003 as a Subchapter S Corporation under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.  On January 27, 2006, All-American Pet Company Inc., a New York corporation, merged with and into All American Pet Company, Inc., a Maryland corporation.  Prior to the merger, the Company amended the shareholder agreements to accommodate new investors.  In addition, two of the four shareholders at December 31, 2005 converted their common shares into Series A preferred shares (see Note 11).  In March 2009, the preferred shares were converted into 5,025,000 shares of common shares.

In January 2008, All American PetCo Inc. a Nevada corporation was formed as a 100% owned subsidiary and became the administrative operating subsidiary. In April 2009 two additional 100% owned subsidiaries were formed; All American Pet Brands Inc. a Nevada corporation, which will become the sales and manufacturing entity and Bow Wow Million, Inc. a Nevada corporation, which is the company’s contest entity.

Unless the context otherwise requires, references in these financial statements to the “Company” refer to All American Pet Company, Inc., a Maryland corporation and its subsidiaries, and its predecessor, All-American Pet Company Inc., a New York corporation. All financial statements give effect to this reincorporation as if it occurred at the beginning of the period.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial positions, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented have been included. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2009 included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2010.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Going Concern

The financial statements have been presented on a going concern basis, which contemplates, but does not include adjustments for the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has a limited operating history and limited funds. As shown in the financial statements, the Company incurred a net loss of $1,514,236 and a cash flow used by operations of $348,056 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, and had a working capital deficit of $2,779,489 and shareholders’ deficit of $3,036,193 as of March 31, 2010. These factors raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The Company believes that it is appropriate for the financial statements to be prepared on a going concern basis.

The Company is dependent upon outside financing to continue operations. It is management’s plans to raise necessary funds via a private placement of its common stock to satisfy the capital requirements of the Company’s business plan.  There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain the necessary funds through continuing equity and debt invest to have sufficient operating capital to support a level of operations to obtain a level of cash flow to sustain  continuing operations. If the Company is successful in raising the necessary funds, there is no assurance that the Company will successfully implement its business plan. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to raise additional funds through a private placement of its common stock or debt sufficient to meet its obligations on a timely basis and ultimately to attain profitable operations.

Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Management believes that the estimates used are reasonable. Significant estimates made by management include estimates for bad debts, excess and obsolete inventory, coupon liabilities and other trade spending liabilities.

Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with maturities at the date of purchase of 90 days or less.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of the financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, bank overdraft, accounts payable, accrued payroll and employee benefits, accrued slotting fees and other current liabilities, approximate fair value due to the short maturities of these financial instruments. The notes payable and capital lease obligations are also considered financial instruments whose carrying amounts approximate fair values.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Accounts Receivable and Allowances for Uncollectible Accounts
Credit limits are established through a process of reviewing the financial history and stability of each customer. The Company regularly evaluates the collectability of the trade receivable balances by monitoring past due balances. If it is determined that a customer will be unable to meet its financial obligation, the Company records a specific reserve for bad debts to reduce the related receivable to the amount that is expected to be recovered.

Inventories
Inventories consist of raw materials, packaging supplies and finished goods and are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out (FIFO) method) or market.

Machinery, Equipment and Leasehold Improvements
Machinery and equipment are stated at cost. Significant improvements are capitalized and maintenance and repairs are expensed. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.  Machinery and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable in accordance ASC Topic 360.  The Company evaluates recoverability of property, plant and equipment to be held and used by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to estimated future net undiscounted cash flows to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.

Estimated useful lives are as follows:
Computer equipment 3 - 5 years

Revenue Recognition, Sales Incentives and Slotting Fees
Revenues are recognized upon passage of title to the customer, typically upon product pick-up, shipment or delivery to customers.  The Company’s revenue arrangements with its customers often include sales incentives and other promotional costs such as coupons, volume-based discounts, slotting fees and off-invoice discounts.  These costs are typically referred to collectively as “trade spending”. Pursuant to ASC Topic 605, these costs are recorded when revenue is recognized and are generally classified as a reduction of revenue. Slotting fees refer to oral arrangements pursuant to which the retail grocer allows our products to be placed on the store’s shelves in exchange for a slotting fee. Given that there are no written contractual commitments requiring the retail grocers to allocate shelf space for twelve months we expense the slotting fee at the time orders are first shipped to customers.

Shipping and Freight Charges
The Company incurs costs related to shipping and handling of manufactured products. These costs are expensed as incurred as a component of warehouse expense. The Company also incurs shipping and handling charges related to the receipt of raw materials, which are recorded as a component of cost of goods sold. Payments received from customers for shipping and handling costs are included as a component of net sales upon recognition of the related sale.

Advertising Costs
Advertising costs, including media advertising, design and printing of coupons, and other advertising, which are included in sales and marketing expense, are expensed when the advertising first takes place. Advertising expenses were $30,000 and $0 during the three months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, respectively.

Normal Spoils Costs
Expenses for spoils that are incurred after our products are received by our customers are recorded as a reduction in gross sales.  Expenses for spoils that are incurred while raw materials are stored pending orders are included in costs of good sold.

Research and Development Costs
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

Distribution of Free Products
In order to generate interest in the Company’s dog food products, the Company sends free products (sample products) to investors, prospective buyers and consumers. The costs related to these samples are expensed as sales and marketing expenses.

Net Loss Attributable to Common Shareholders
Net loss per share is calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period and diluted loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding.  The weighted average number of common shares outstanding of 97,546,341 at March 31, 2010 and 47,298,846 at March 31, 2009. Net loss per share and diluted net loss per share are the same for all periods presented because common equivalent shares of 10,237,031 and 8,437,031  for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, were not used in the computation of net loss per share because the results would be anti-dilutive.

ALL AMERICAN PET COMPANY, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Accounting for obligations and instruments potentially settled in the Company’s common stock
In connection with any obligations and instruments potentially to be settled in the Company’s stock, the Company accounts for the instruments in accordance with ASC Topic 815.  This issue addresses the initial balance sheet classification and measurement of contracts that are indexed to, and potentially settled in, the Company’s stock.

Under ASC Topic 815, contracts are initially classified as equity or as either assets or liabilities, depending on the situation.  All contracts are initially measured at fair value and subsequently accounted for based on the then current classification.  Contracts initially classified as equity do not recognize subsequent changes in fair value as long as the contracts continue to be classified as equity.  For contracts classified as assets or liabilities, the Company reports changes in fair value in earnings and discloses these changes in the financial statements as long as the contracts remain classified as assets or liabilities.  If contracts classified as assets or liabilities are ultimately settled in shares, any previously reported gains or losses on those contracts continue to be included in earnings. The classification of a contract is reassessed at each balance sheet date.

Derivative instruments
In connection with the issuances of equity instruments or debt, the Company may issue options or warrants to purchase common stock. In certain circumstances, these options or warrants may be classified as liabilities, rather than as equity. In addition, the equity instrument or debt may contain embedded derivative instruments, such as conversion options or listing requirements, which in certain circumstances may be required to be bifurcated from the associated host instrument and accounted for separately as a derivative liability instrument.  The Company accounts for derivative instruments under the provisions of ASC Topic 815.

Income taxes
The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various states. The Company is subject to U.S. federal or state income tax examinations by tax authorities for years after 2006. During the periods open to examination, the Company has net operating loss (NOL) and tax credit carry forwards for U.S. federal and state tax purposes that have attributes from closed periods. Since these NOLs and tax credit carry forwards may be utilized in future periods, they remain subject to examination.

Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior years’ financial statements to conform to the current year presentations. These changes have been made in order to more clearly reflect details that confirm with the current operations in each of the subsidiaries, as they began to be utilized in the current period. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of operations or retained earnings.

2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

References to the “ASC”, "FASB", "SFAS" and "SAB" herein refer to the “Accounting Standard Codification”, "Financial Accounting Standards Board", "Statement of Financial Accounting Standards", and the "SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin", respectively.

In April 2010, the FASB (Financial Accounting Standards Board) issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-18 (ASU 2010-18), Receivables (Topic 310): Effect of a Loan Modification When the Loan is Part of a Pool That Is Accounted for as a Single Asset-a consensus of the FASB Emerging Task Force.  As a result of the amendments in this Update, modifications of loans that are accounted for within a pool under Subtopic 310-30 do not result in the removal of those loans from the pool even if the modification of those loans would otherwise be considered a troubled debt restructuring.  An entity will continue to be required to consider whether the pool of assets in which the loan is included is impaired if expected cash flows for the pool change.  The amendments in this Update do not affect the accounting for loans under the scope of Subtopic 310-30 that are not accounted for within pools.  Loans accounted for individually under Subtopic 310-30 continue to be subject to the troubled debt restructuring accounting provisions within Subtopic 310-40 Receivables-Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors. The amendments in this Update are effective for modifications of loans accounted for within pools under Subtopic 310-30 occurring in the first interim or annual period ending on or after July 15, 2010.  The amendments are to be applied prospectively. Early application is permitted.  The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-18 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

In April 2010, the FASB (Financial Accounting Standards Board) issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-17 (ASU 2010-17), Revenue Recognition-Milestone Method (Topic 605): Milestone Method of Revenue Recognition.  The amendments in this Update provide guidance on the criteria that should be met for determining whether the milestone method of revenue recognition is appropriate.  A vendor can recognize consideration that is contingent upon achievement of a milestone in its entirety as revenue in the period in which the milestone is achieved only if the milestone meets all criteria to be considered substantive.  The amendments in this Update are effective on a prospective basis for milestones achieved in fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted.  If a vendor elects early adoption and the period of adoption is not the beginning of the entity’s fiscal year, the entity should apply the amendments retrospectively from the beginning of the year of adoption.  The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-17 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

In April 2010, the FASB (Financial Accounting Standards Board) issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-16 (ASU 2010-16), Entertainment-Casinos (Topic 924): Accruals for Casino Jackpot Liabilities-a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task.  The amendments in this Update clarify that an entity should not accrue jackpot liabilities (or portions thereof) before a jackpot is won if the entity can avoid paying that jackpot.  Jackpots should be accrued and charged to revenue when an entity has the obligation to pay the jackpot.

We produce, market and sell super-premium dog food under the brand names Grrrnola™ Natural Dog Food, BowWow Breakfast Cereal™, and a full line of super premium dog nutritional bars (a full 8 ounce meal serving) in a 4 ounce bar that are portable, convenient and healthy. We believe that this new form of super premium dog food will revolutionize the industry for the dog “on the go”. They bring the convenience of a dog food without the bag and the bowl as well as the opportunity of selling the bars not only to mass merchants, supermarkets and pet centers but in drug stores and convenience stores which carry a limited range of dog food. Baby boomers and two family earners are shopping more frequently in full service drug and expanded convenience stores. Convenience of prescriptions, health and beauty with expanded food choices from a smaller conveniently located store location has sparked a proliferation of new product opportunities for new product forms for the consumers. Informed consumers know that their health and well-being of their dogs are linked, so the heart healthy Grrrnola Natural Dog Food Bar as well as the Breakfast Bars, double as a heart healthy snack as well. Just as Kellogg revolutionized the industry with their Nutra-Grain Bars for humans, creating a $3.4 billion category, the All American Branded Bars for Dogs will be the industry phenomenon in pet food. We plan on expanding these product lines with additional packaging alternatives, additional flavors and additional bars (e.g. Nutritional Bars, Energy Bars, Food Supplement Bars and Power Bars) if we are able to secure adequate funding to do so.

Based on our review of the available products in the dog food market, we believe we have also developed the first line of commercial super premium dog food specifically targeted for the morning meal.  As part of our marketing strategy, we have shaped and packaged our products similar to breakfast cereals. Bow Wow Breakfast™ Cereal provides a complete and balanced start to any dog’s day. Our premium blend of natural ingredients provides essential nutrients optimized to promote dog nutrition, health and vitality. Bow Wow Breakfast is available in three flavors and textures; Chompions,™ Chewabunga™ and Fido Flakes.™

Grrr-nola™ Natural dog food is a multi-meal every-day super premium dog food formula. Veterinary health experts recommend feeding dogs twice a day— breakfast being one of those meals—to lower the risks of obesity, diabetes, cardiac stress and minimizing bloating. It is the same natural formula as Bow Wow Breakfast Cereals without the food coloring and flavoring.

Unlike most dry dog foods, all of our dog food products have chicken as the main ingredient. All our products are made in the U.S.A., are 100% safe and Wheat Gluten Free and have never been affected by any pet food recall.

We have arrangements with non-affiliated dog food manufacturers to produce our products according to our specific instructions.  We have approached mass merchants, pet centers, supermarket chains, drug store chains, and convenience store chains to shelve and sell our products in their stores.  Through this process, we have developed an internal sales team as well as a network of food brokers with strong relationships with retail chain stores nationwide with over 75,000 stores that carry pet food and pet snack products. We have also brought in outside merchandising experts to market our products, and to increase public awareness of our products.  If our efforts to shelve our products are successful, we will enter into purchase orders with manufacturers for the delivery of specified amounts of our products, which we will in turn distribute to stores that have agreed to shelve our products.

We are currently the only dog food company which recommends on its packaging that dogs should be fed two meals a day, and we are the only dog food company that is endorsed by a cardiac veterinarian surgeon. In addition, we are the only dog food company in the United States, which has developed a proprietary formula for a dog food bar that has the consistency of a candy bar with the nutritional content of our super premium formula.

Educating the public regarding our products and the benefits dogs will receive from our products is an important aspect of our business. We have used the latest media and promotional techniques to educate consumers about the health benefits of our dog food products, which will in turn, we believe, lead to sales of our products. The current media driven tools we have used include, direct marketing and data gathering programs, internet marketing, strategic media, promotional alliances, traditional and non-traditional advertising campaigns and national, local and print news interviews. We also intend to use loyalty mass mailers, "end cap" displays and related sales promotions, and high profile shopping center publicity events.

We began developing the formulation of our line of super-premium dog food in March 2003, and spent 18 months developing production in the U.S. with the strictest adherence to government regulations and domestic raw materials to insure the highest quality product. Management also developed the packaging and marketing materials and launched its sales strategy in late 2005 and 2006. During the product launch the company developed distribution channels that resulted in the placement of the BowWow Breakfast product line in 7,800 supermarket chain stores. 

Manufacturing

We currently rely on one non-affiliated dog food manufacturer, C.J Foods, Inc., which produces our dog food, and three non-affiliated packaging companies (two that produces the cartons for our products, and two of which will produce the bags for packaging our products and one that produces the wrappers for our bars). We purchase approximately 86% of the materials necessary for the production of our products from these six parties.  We purchase the other 14% of the materials necessary for the production of our dog food, which includes the master cases to house our dog food bags and boxes, as well as the pallets on which our cases of dog food are shipped, from various packaging and shipping companies.  We do not maintain supply agreements with these parties, but instead purchase products through the use of purchase orders in the ordinary course of business. During the first quarter of 2010, AAPT obtained a human food-grade forming machine through a leasing agreement with an option to purchase.  This equipment will be used to produce the “Bars” at our dog food manufacturer’s facility. We also obtained packaging equipment to wrap, carton and case pack our “Bars”. This equipment was also purchased through a lease agreement with an option to buy. In addition, we signed a warehouse lease in Nebraska City, Nebraska where we will do all of our “Bar” packaging, as well as receive, store, stage and ship all of our products.

Sales and Marketing

The wholesale price for the Company's products is $1.00 per pound, and the Company has never operated at a profit.  The lack of sales in 2009 resulted from the fact that we did not have the funds necessary to manufacture or promote any of our products in a proper manner, and we did not have any funds to pay any other costs necessary to place our products in stores where they could be sold.

Our ability to successfully market our products is essential to our business. During 2009, we did not have sufficient financial resources to support an effective marketing program, and consumers were largely unaware of our products.  In addition, because we did not have adequate financial resources to distribute marketing materials to consumers, develop internet viral marketing programs and social network programs that were available to us, we were unable to disseminate information about our products on a broad scale, and we were unable to "target-market" possible consumers.

Marketing All American Pet’s brands began in 2009 with running trade advertising to build the presence of our product line with buyers and retail merchandisers. We started building awareness for our brands in every way using every media, mostly through editorials about our product lines through Public Relations, which included TV appearances that were virally distributed.  We started promoting multi location charity events that raised funds for canine cardiac care for dogs and we have supported people with dogs who are contemplating giving up their dogs due to today’s economics of rising unemployment, rising foreclosures, higher costs of veterinary care and overflow of shelters. We started a program of “Keeping Family’s Together” which assists people and their dogs that have a need for help.  At the end of the first quarter of 2010, our products were accepted in approximately 12,000 stores, ranging from mass merchants, supermarkets and drug store chains.  To achieve our sales goals in 2010, we will need to shelve our products in approximately 15,000 stores by the end of 2010.  In order to shelve our products in stores, we will require significant additional capital to be able to pay slotting fees and to manufacture and deliver our products, which we currently do not have.  There is no assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient capital to meet our sales goals.

The Company entered into a license agreement in August 2009 that expands the company’s sales and marketing capacity. The agreement grants AAP Sales and Distribution Inc. a non-affiliated company, a non-exclusive license agreement to sell, distribute under certain conditions and with the supervision of All American Pet Company Inc. manufacture the Company’s products, which will augment our ability to cover the market place. The non-exclusive agreement allows the licensee the use of AAPT’s intellectual property and branding to manufacture and sell a specific list of AAPT’s product lines.  The agreement allows the company to leverage its properties and AAPT will receive advance payments, minimum royalties and a royalty on all sales of product by the licensee based on sales and guaranteed payments providing an attractive economic benefit to AAPT.

AAPT retains the rights to all of its formulas trade secrets and brands. The license covers AAPT’s products “Heart Healthy” Dry Dog Food, the Grrr-nola™ Natural Food Bar, 4oz bags, 4 lb. bags, 8 lb. bags, 17.6 lb. bags, and 30 lb. bags of dry dog food. In addition, the licensee has the right to use the trademarks as well as the brand names, All American Pet Brands™, Grrrnola™ Natural Dog Food, Chewabunga™ Healthy Breakfast For Dogs, Bow Wow Breakfast™ and Grrr-nola™ Multi-Grain Food Bar and others to be mutually agreed upon.  The agreement provides that AAPT receive advance payments, minimum royalties and a royalty on all sales of product by the licensee based on sales and guaranteed payments.

We are now focused on selling supermarkets, big box retailers, pet specialty stores, convenience and drug stores.  In addition, to our internal sales team, we have hired six (6) Sales Broker Organizations that cover the country with their sales teams to promote All American Pet Company Products. These Companies are compensated on receipt of purchase orders as well as reorders. This select group has been hand picked based on their experiences in the pet category, and their relationships that they have built over the years in the entire industry (Supermarket, Mass Merchant, Big Box, Drug Store, Convenience Stores, Dollar Stores and Truck Stops). The AAPT selling team along with our food broker coverage will speed the introduction of our products to more major chains and help us realize our goals of a national distribution footprint in 2010.  
 
As discussed elsewhere in this 10Q, our marketing and promotional activities have been severely constrained due to a lack of funding.  In 2009 we entered into a marketing partnership with Disney/Pixar to promote their first joint animated 3D movie “UP”.  We placed over 150,000 samples of our products in close to one hundred theatre locations nationwide that premiered the movie. In 2010, because of the success of this promotion, we are in discussions with Disney to partner with them on future movie premieres as well as partnering discussions with Warner Brothers and Fox Studios. In the last 4 months of 2009 we created a nationwide viral marketing contest known as the “Cutest Dog Competition” in which AAPT accumulated over a quarter of a million (250,000) registered voters with more than sixty thousand (60,000) active photo entries. In the last eight weeks of the “Cutest Dog Competition”, AAPT received an average of two million five hundred thousand-page views per day with over one hundred and fifty four million (154,000,000) total page views.  In this time period this website moved into the top three thousand (3,000) most visited websites on the Internet.  The winner of the “Cutest Dog Competition was announced on our website as well as at a media event on Thanksgiving Day. Prizes were distributed for regional winners, and the top regional winners qualified for the final event.  Regional winners then competed for the title of the “Cutest Dog Competition” and the $1 million winner was announced on Thanksgiving Day. Finally, AAPT has secured advertising on the Jumbo-Tron at Times Square in NY. More than 1.2 million people daily (both tourists and New Yorkers) pass the Jumbo-Tron each day. In this 100 day promotion we anticipate over 120 million people viewing our product line.  We intend to participate in these and similar events in the future to enhance our position in an attempt to secure corporate promotional alliances and sponsorships, and to create a virtual community on the Company's website through interactive consumer participation. AAPT’s marketing department  has planned a viral marketing campaign, along with the other activities, contests, promotions to create “Buzz” and brand recognition for the company’s products.

It is important to recognize that although we have expended significant resources to market our products as described above, we will not be able to implement or utilize these opportunities and arrangements unless we obtain enough additional capital necessary for the implementation of the planned activities for sales and marketing in the near future.

Competition

The pet food business is highly competitive.  Virtually all of the manufacturers, distributors and marketers of pet food have substantially greater management, financial, brand recognition, research and development, marketing and manufacturing resources than we do. Competitors in the super-premium pet food market include, among others: Colgate-Palmolive Co. whose major brands include Hills' Science Diet; Proctor and Gamble whose major dog food brands are Iams and Eukanuba and Nestle Corporation whose major dog food brands are Purina.

In addition, we compete with current private label supermarket high-priced dog foods, as well as private label premium dog foods offered in the specialty pet stores and mass merchants.  We believe that the dog food recalls that occurred in 2009 has led to the opening of some shelf space in supermarket stores and mass merchants, pet centers as well as drug store locations.  Although dominant existing premium pet food brands are not currently available in supermarkets and mass merchants, there can be no assurance that this situation will continue because barriers to entry in our industry are relatively low especially for existing brands with greater financial and marketing capabilities than us.

Regulation

We are subject to a broad range of federal, state and local laws and regulations intended to protect public health, natural resources and the environment. Our operations are subject to regulation by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (“OSHA”), the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), the Department of Agriculture (“DOA”) and various state and local authorities regarding the processing, packaging, storage, distribution, advertising and labeling of our products, including food safety standards. Due to the widely publicized pet food recalls from 2007-2009, both our Company and our dog food supplier are doing more quality assurance testing for melamine, and other potential microbial contaminants. A task force has been established to assert more stringent “country of origin” labeling. We will be working with our supplier and the FDA in solving this industry wide issue. In addition, our Manufacturer tests all production runs for microbial contaminants as well as salmonella testing on all lot numbers. Our manufacturer will also be researching amino acid profiling of new suppliers to validate the legitimacy of protein sources. 

Employees

As of March 31, 2010, we had six full-time employees of which two are officers. We also have two consultants who work with us on a part-time basis to assist in local marketing and public relations activities.

Results of Operations

The statements contained in this report that are not purely historical are forward-looking statements. "Forward-looking statements" include statements regarding our expectations, hopes, intentions, or strategies regarding the future. Forward-looking statements include: statements regarding future products or product development; statements regarding future selling, general and administrative costs and research and development spending, and our product development strategy; statements regarding future capital expenditures and financing requirements; and similar forward-looking statements. It is important to note that our actual results could differ materially from those in such forward-looking statements.

Summary of the Company and its Current Status

The Company has never operated at a profit,  Liabilities have increased in the three month period by $76,815 and Notes Payables-Others decreased by 30,000. The Company has continued to seek and obtained substantial new equity investment, however, the company remains under significant financial strain primarily because its lack of sales and limited operating funds. The lack of significant sales results from the Company not having enough funds necessary to support the manufacture of its products, and  not having all of the funds necessary to market its products or to pay the other costs required to place its products in stores where they can be sold.

The Company's Business Model

At this time the Company does not operate its own dog food manufacturing facility. We currently contract with one non-affiliated dog food manufacturer that has the capacity to allow the company to reach sales in excess of 50 million dollars annually. We plan to use this company for all of the production of our dog food in the near future along with five non-affiliated packaging companies (two that produce the cartons for our products, two that produce the bags for packaging our products and one that produces the wrappers for our bars). We maintain strict quality assurance and quality control standards when producing all our products. With respect to our dog food manufacturer, for example, when we produce any of our dog food products, at least one of our employees is present at the manufacturing facility to supervise production, and to test the quality and ingredients of the dog food. We are planning to lease warehouse space to store our dog food products. The warehouse space requires meeting processing standards and very strict quality control benchmarks.

We intend to generate revenue from the sales of super-premium dog food products to mass merchants, supermarkets, pet centers, and drug store customers, which we refer to in this section as retail customers. Our focus initially is to concentrate on the mass merchants and pet centers, because they do not require their retail suppliers to advance or spend funds on sales incentives and other promotional costs.  In addition these types of retail chains do not charge slotting fees for placement of products on their shelves. We will follow this strategy with refocusing our sales to supermarket and drug store customers. Revenue arrangements with supermarket and drug store customers include sales incentives and other promotional costs such as coupons, volume-based discounts and off-invoice discounts. In addition, we may pay "slotting fees," which are fees paid based on an oral arrangement with a supermarket customer to have our products placed on its shelves. Slotting fees are a one-time fee paid to a supermarket customer. Additional slotting fees may be incurred with a supermarket and grocery store customer in the future if additional products are sold. As we continue to build out our distribution network to the supermarket customers, we anticipate incurring additional slotting fees. We record slotting fees as a reduction of gross sales. We do not currently have sufficient funds to pay the slotting fees necessary to shelve our products with retail customers at a level necessary to sustain our operations or generate revenue and that is why we re-strategized our position to do business with the mass merchants, pet centers and drug stores.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2010 compared with the Three Months Ended March 31, 2009

The following discussion of the results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto for three month periods ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009 included in this Quarterly Report as well as the statements included in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

For the three months ending March 31, 2010, there were no sales. Sales and marketing expenses increased by $115,074, which consisted of an increase of $9,182 in product research, an increase of $56,256 in consulting and research, an increase of $14,031 in PR/Website and an increase of $35,606 of other sales and marketing expenses. General and administrative expenses were increased by $1,318,250. This amount consisted of the increase of $1,119,010 in consulting expenses, the reduction for equipment depreciation of $246, the increase of research and development costs of $12,410, an increase of $12,202 for business expenses, an increase of $481 for website and computer enhancements, an increase of $338 for rent, an increase of $56,725 for legal, accounting, and processing fees, an increase of $11,980 for professional fees and an additional $83,171 of other general and administrative expenses.

Because of our lack of funding and lack of promoting our products sufficiently, we have incurred high costs while generating no revenues. As a result, we have experienced large operating losses and negative cash flow. At March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, we had a working capital deficit of $2,779,489 and $2,690,231, respectively, and a stockholder’s deficit of $3,036,193 and $2,996,221, respectively. We have funded our operations primarily through the issuance of equity securities and debt. Ongoing working capital requirements will primarily consist of marketing, promotional and advertising expense and reducing our liabilities. We believe that our revenue growth and future profitability will depend on the success of our funding, sales strategies with the mass merchants and pet centers and marketing strategies. Our limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our prospects for success and our revenue and profitability potential is unproven.

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern

The Company incurred a net loss of $1,514,236, and cash used from operations of $348,056 for the period ended March 31, 2010, and a working capital deficiency of $2,779,489 and a stockholder deficiency of $3,036,193 at March 31, 2010. These matters raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

In their report in connection with our 2009 financial statements, our independent registered public accountants included an explanatory paragraph stating that, because we incurred a net loss of $1,992,537 and a negative cash flow from operations of $1,000,448 for the year ended December 31, 2009, and a working capital deficiency of $3,026,732 and a shareholders' deficiency of $2,996,222 at December 31, 2009, there was substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Our principal sources of liquidity have been sales of equity securities and borrowings. To meet our current requirements to operate, the Company is currently attempting to undertake the sale of additional equity and debt to raise these funds. There are currently no commitments or other known sources for this funding. If these funds are obtained, our principal uses would be to meet our debt service requirements, marketing and advertising expenditures, and operating expenses. Until cash generated from operations is sufficient to satisfy our future liquidity requirements, we are investigating purchase order and Accounts Receivable funding from different sources. In addition, we will be looking to seek additional funds through the issuance of additional common stock with another round of funding. There are currently no commitments or other known sources for this funding. If these funds are obtained, it would result in additional dilution to our stockholders. Financing may not be available in the future in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

On October 25, 2005, the Company entered into a loan in the amount of $50,000. The loan accrues interest at 15% per annum and was due in a lump sum of principal and accrued interest on April 26, 2006.  On April 21, 2006, this note was extended for an additional 60 days.  Accrued interest in the amount of $18,138 and $21,888 is included in interest payable at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. On June 26, 2006, this note was extended until June 30, 2009. The loan still remains unpaid as of March 31, 2010 and is in default.

On November 29, 2005, the Company commenced a private placement offering of convertible notes payable. As of December 31, 2005, we had issued one note to an investor totaling $25,000 under the convertible notes payable offering. In January 2006, an additional $100,000 was subscribed and cash received. The notes carried interest at 8% and were due one-year from the closing. These notes also provided the note holder with the option to convert any or all of the principal amount of the note, including the amount of accrued interest, into the same securities and/or other consideration being acquired by investors in a subsequent financing, as defined, at a conversion rate equal to 80% of the price paid by the investors in the subsequent financing. This below market conversion rate resulted in a beneficial conversion feature of $31,250 for these notes, which was reflected as a debt discount. At the time of issuance of the shares based on the conversion option, note holders were to receive a warrant to purchase a number of shares of our common stock equal to 25% of the number of conversion shares. In March 2006, the note holders elected to convert the debt and all accrued interest to 316,667 shares of common stock. In addition, each converting holder received two-year warrants exercisable at $.50 per share of common stock. The total number of shares of our common stock underlying these warrants is 79,167. The Company recorded additional expense of $9,089 related to these warrants calculated using the options pricing model.

On August 29, 2006, the Company entered into a related party loan with an officer in the amount of $25,000. The loan accrues interest at 15% per annum and is due on demand. Accrued interest in the amount of $1,259 is included in interest payable at December 31, 2006. On June 26, 2006, this note was extended for an additional 18 months.  The Company made payments of $10,000 during the period ended December 31, 2006. At March 31, 2010 the principal and accrued interest owing was $16,176.

During the fourth quarter of 2006, the Company entered into loans with a shareholder in the aggregate amount of $400,000. The loans accrue interest at 15% per annum and are due on demand. Accrued interest in the amount of $8,630 is included in interest payable at December 31, 2008.  This loan was converted into 9,062,500 shares of common stock on March 9, 2009.

During 2006, the Company borrowed additional funds of $87,500 from unrelated individuals to fund current operations. The notes are due on demand and accrue interest at 15% per annum. As of March 31, 2010 $50,000 is still outstanding.

During the year 2009, 10,293,150 shares of Common Stock were issued for Consultants’ Fees of $617,588 and 5,000 shares for Employee Bonus of $3,000.

During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company issued 288,147 shares of common stock to a vendor in settlement of $28,815 owed.  In addition, the Company also issued 410,000 shares of common stock valued $82,000 to a professional firm for services rendered.

In December 2007, we issued an aggregate of 896,000 shares of our common stock to certain of our existing investors pursuant to contractual anti-dilution provisions contained in such investors’ stock purchase agreements.  Each of these issuances were completed in reliance on exemptions from registrations under Section 3(b) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, and each offering qualified for an exemption from registration because (i) the securities were purchased by accredited investors only; (ii) the Company did not engage in any general solicitation or advertising to market the securities; (iii) each purchaser was provided the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the offering; and (iv) the purchasers received “restricted securities”.

Each of these issuances were completed in reliance on exemptions from registrations under Section 3(b) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, and each issuance qualified for an exemption from registration because (i) the securities were purchased by accredited investors only; (ii) the Company did not engage in any general solicitation or advertising to market the securities; (iii) each purchaser was provided the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the offering; and (iv) the purchasers received “restricted securities”. Common stock issued in settlement of $45,000 in notes.

Critical Accounting Policies/Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Management believes that the estimates used are reasonable. Significant estimates made by management include estimates for bad debts, excess and obsolete inventory, coupon liabilities and other trade spending liabilities.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of the financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, bank overdraft, accounts payable, accrued payroll and employee benefits, accrued slotting fees and other current liabilities, approximate fair value due to the short maturities of these financial instruments. The notes payable and capital lease obligations are also considered financial instruments whose carrying amounts approximate fair values.

Accounts Receivable and Allowances for Uncollectible Accounts

Credit limits are established through a process of reviewing the financial history and stability of each customer. The Company regularly evaluates the collectability of the trade receivable balances by monitoring past due balances. If it is determined that a customer will be unable to meet its financial obligation, the Company records a specific reserve for bad debts to reduce the related receivable to the amount that is expected to be recovered.

 
26

 

Inventories

Inventories consist of raw materials, packaging supplies and finished goods and are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out (FIFO) method) or market.

Machinery, Equipment and Leasehold Improvements

Machinery and equipment are stated at cost. Significant improvements are capitalized and maintenance and repairs are expensed. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.  Machinery and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable in accordance with ASC Topic 360.  The Company evaluates recoverability of property, plant and equipment to be held and used by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to estimated future net undiscounted cash flows to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.

Estimated useful lives are as follows:

Computer equipment             3 - 5 years

Revenue Recognition, Sales Incentives and Slotting Fees

In accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition (“SAB 104”), revenues are recognized upon passage of title to the customer, typically upon product pick-up, shipment or delivery to customers.  The Company’s revenue arrangements with its customers often include sales incentives and other promotional costs such as coupons, volume-based discounts, slotting fees and off-invoice discounts.  These costs are typically referred to collectively as “trade spending”. Pursuant to ASC Topic 605, these costs are recorded when revenue is recognized and are generally classified as a reduction of revenue. Slotting fees refer to oral arrangements pursuant to which the retail grocer allows our products to be placed on the store’s shelves in exchange for a slotting fee. Given that there are no written contractual commitments requiring the retail grocers to allocate shelf space for twelve months we expense the slotting fee at the time orders are first shipped to customers.

Shipping and Freight Charges

The Company incurs costs related to shipping and handling of manufactured products, which amounted to $10,688 and $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. These costs are expensed as incurred as a component of warehouse expense. The Company also incurs shipping and handling charges related to the receipt of raw materials, which are recorded as a component of cost of goods sold. Payments received from customers for shipping and handling costs are included as a component of net sales upon recognition of the related sale.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs, including media advertising, design and printing of coupons, and other advertising, which are included in sales and marketing expense, are expensed when the advertising first takes place. Advertising expenses were $0 and $0 during the periods ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009.

Normal Spoils Costs

Expenses for spoils that are incurred after our products are received by our customers are recorded as a reduction in gross sales.  Expenses for spoils that are incurred while raw materials are stored pending orders are included in costs of good sold.  The Company regularly evaluates the cost of spoils in relationship to sales to determine if its allowance is adequate. As of the period ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009 the Company had not booked an allowance for these costs.

Distribution of Free Products

In order to generate interest in the Company’s dog food products, the Company sends sample products to investors, prospective buyers and consumers. The costs related to these samples are expensed as sales and marketing expenses.

Item 4(T). Controls and Procedures

We conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this annual report.

Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that as of the evaluation date our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. Our procedures were designed to ensure that the information relating to our company, including our consolidated subsidiaries, required to be disclosed in our SEC reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Management is currently evaluating the current disclosure controls and procedures in place to see where improvements can be made.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f). Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting based on the framework in “Internal Control Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based upon this evaluation, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2009 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms. Steps that the Company believes it must undertake is to retain a consulting firm to, among other things, design and implement adequate systems of accounting and financial statement disclosure controls during the current fiscal year to comply with the requirements of the SEC. We believe that the ultimate success of our plan to improve our disclosure controls and procedures will require a combination of additional financial resources, outside consulting services, legal advice, additional personnel, further reallocation of responsibility among various persons, and substantial additional training of those of our officers, personnel and others, including certain of our directors such as our committee chairs, who are charged with implementing and/or carrying out our plan. 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as required in Rule 13a-15(b).  In October 2007, our Controller was terminated as the result of our ceased operation.  We are in the process of hiring a full time controller.  We will retain a consulting firm and are conducting an evaluation to design and implement adequate systems of accounting and financial statement disclosure controls.  We expect to complete this review during 2010 to comply with the requirement of the SEC.  We believe that the ultimate success of our plan to improve our internal control over financial reporting will require a combination of additional financial resources, outside consulting services, legal advice, additional personnel, further reallocation of responsibility among various persons, and substantial additional training of those of our officers, personnel and others, including certain of our directors such as our Chairman of the Board and committee chairs, who are charged with implementing and/or carrying out our plan.  It should also be noted that the design of any system of controls and procedures is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.

Our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting, or any system we design or implement in the future, will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Changes in Internal Control
 
There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period ended March 31, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
