There is no minimum number of units that we have to sell. There is no arrangement to place the proceeds from this offering in an escrow, trust or similar account. Any funds raised from this offering will be immediately available to our company for its use. The offering will be for a period of 90 days from the effective date and may be extended for an additional 90 days if we so choose to do so.
Because there is no minimum number of units that has to be sold in this offering, there is no assurance that we will achieve the proceeds level described in the above table. If we do not raise at least $50,000 in this offering we will not be able to continue with our proposed operations and we will go out of business. If we go out of business, investors will lose their entire investment. In addition to $150,000 that we may receive through the sale of the Units, we may also receive up to $300,000 in gross proceeds from the exercise of share purchase warrants by the investors within two years of completion of this offering.

Use of Available Funds |
We intend to raise up to $150,000 from the sale of the 3,000,000 units of our securities that we propose to sell directly at $0.05 per unit. We may also receive up to $300,000 in gross proceeds from the exercise of share purchase warrants by the investors within two years of completion of this offering. This offering is made on a best efforts basis and there is no minimum. We have no intention to return to any investor any proceeds from the sale of any of these 3,000,0000 units if the maximum amount is not raised. We intend to use the proceeds for general working capital purposes. The following table shows how our company intends to use the proceeds from this offering if all of the 3,000,000 units are sold but the share purchase warrants are not exercised:

If we do not raise at least $50,000 in this offering we will not be able to continue with our proposed operations and we will go out of business. If we go out of business, investors will lose their entire investment.
We are not listed for trading on any exchange or an automated quotation system. Because we are not listed for trading on any exchange or automated quotation system, you may not be able to resell your shares.

Item 5 - Securities Offered
5.1 |
Terms |
We are offering up to a total of 3,000,000 units of our securities, each unit comprising one share of our common stock and one share purchase warrant. The offering price is $0.05 per unit. Each share purchase warrant will entitle its holder to purchase one additional share of our common stock at the price of $0.10 per share within two years of completion of this offering. The share purchase warrants are not transferable by the holders and we are not seeking to register the share purchase warrants as a separate class of securities.
There is no minimum number of units that we have to sell. There is no arrangement to place the proceeds from this offering in an escrow, trust or similar account. Nevada law does not require that funds raised pursuant to the sale of securities be placed into an escrow account. Any funds raised from this offering will be immediately available to our company for its use. The offering will be for a period of 90 days from the effective date and may be extended for an additional 90 days if we so choose to do so.
5.2 |
Subscription Procedure |
To subscribe for Shares, prospective purchasers must complete and deliver to the Issuer a subscription in the form delivered with this Offering Memorandum and deliver to the Issuer the purchase price by cheque, bank draft, or money order made payable to the Issuer or by wire transfer to the Issuer.
Exemptions - The Shares are being offered in reliance upon exemptions from the registration and prospectus requirements of the securities laws of the Provinces of British Columbia (the “Applicable Securities Laws”). In determining the availability of these exemptions, the Issuer will be relying upon the truth and accuracy of your representations in the Subscription Agreement. Purchasers should closely review the terms of the Subscription Agreement with their professional advisors.
D/KFR/779427.1
Purchasers are required to execute and deliver to the Issuer the Risk Acknowledgement Form attached to the Subscription Agreement. In addition, the purchase price paid by persons required to execute the Risk Acknowledgement Form will be held in trust by the Issuer for at least two days from the date of receipt.
The preceding is only a summary of the subscription procedure. Prospective purchasers should refer to the Subscription Agreement.
Prospective investors should not construe the contents of this Offering Memorandum as investment, legal or tax advice. Each investor should consult his, her or its own counsel, accountants and other advisors as to legal, tax and related matters concerning any purchase of the Shares. By execution of the Subscription and related documents, each investor represents and warrants to the Issuer that he or she has obtained such professional advice and made such independent investigation of this investment as the investor deems appropriate in reaching his or her decision to invest.
Item 6: Income Tax Consequences and RRSP Eligibility
You should consult your own professional advisers to obtain advice on the income tax consequences that apply to you.
Not all securities are available for investment in a registered retirement savings plan (RRSP). You should consult your own professional advisers to obtain advice on the RRSP eligibility of the Units.
Item 7: Compensation Paid to Sellers and Finders
The Company does not intend to pay any compensation in respect of the offering of the Units.
Item 8 - Risk Factors
An investment in our securities involves a number of very significant risks. You should carefully consider the following risks and uncertainties in addition to other information in this prospectus in evaluating our company and its business before purchasing units of our securities. Our business, operating results and financial condition could be seriously harmed due to any of the following risks. The risks described below are not the only ones facing our company. Additional risks not presently known to us may also impair our business operations. You could lose all or part of your investment due to any of these risks.
RISKS RELATED TO THIS OFFERING
The risk that you could lose all of your investment increases with any shortfall of the $150,000 maximum amount that we are trying to raise in this offering. We will close this offering within 90 days even if we raise only a nominal amount. We need a minimum of $50,000 to cover our offering expenses.
Even if we raise the entire $150,000 maximum amount we are trying to raise in this offering you could lose all of your investment if we do not have enough money to implement and complete our proposed business operations. The risk that you could lose all of your investment increases with any shortfall of the $150,000 maximum amount that we are trying to raise in this offering. Your risk increases because if we raise less money it would be more likely that we will not have sufficient funds to implement or complete our proposed business operations. We will close this offering within 90 days even if we raise only a nominal amount and we will not refund any money we raise. We need a minimum of $50,000 to cover our estimated offering expenses. We may not even be able to raise this amount. If we are not able to raise sufficient funds to cover our estimated operating expenses and implement and complete our proposed business operations we will go out of business and you will lose your entire investment.
We need financing from this offering to implement our business plan and to market and deploy our Puppy Zone franchise system. If we do not raise at least $50,000 we will not be able to continue our proposed operations and you will lose your entire investment.
D/KFR/779427.1
We need financing from this offering to complete to implement our proposed business plan and to market and deploy our Puppy Zone franchise system. If we are unable to raise at least $50,000 we will not be able to undertake our proposed business operations and you will lose your entire investment. In addition, we may:
- incur unexpected costs in implementing our proposed business plan and/or the marketing and deploy of our Puppy Zone franchise system;
- incur delays and additional expenses in the promotion of our Puppy Zone franchise system;
- be unable to create substantial pool of business people interested in becoming a franchisee; or
- incur significant and unanticipated expenses.
The occurrence of any of the aforementioned events could adversely affect our ability to meet our business plan. We will depend substantially on outside capital to pay for the marketing and deployment of our Puppy Zone franchise system. Such outside capital may include borrowing. Capital may not be available to meet these continuing development costs or, if the capital is available, it may be on terms acceptable to us. The issuance of additional equity securities by us would result in a significant dilution in your equity interests and the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments. If we were unable to obtain financing in the amounts required our proposed business will fail and you will lose your entire investment.
The offering price of the securities was arbitrarily determined, and therefore should not be used as an indicator of the future market price of the securities. Therefore, the offering price bears no relationship to the actual value of the company, and may make our common stock difficult to sell.
Since our common stock is not listed or quoted on any exchange or quotation system, the offering price of $0.05 for the unit of our securities was arbitrarily determined. The facts considered in determining the offering price were our financial condition and prospects, our limited operating history and the general condition of the securities market. The offering price is not an indication of and is not based upon our actual value. The offering price bears no relationship to the book value, assets or earnings of our company or any other recognized criteria of value. The offering price should not be regarded as an indicator of the future market price of the securities.
You may not be able to liquidate your investment since there is no assurance that a public market will develop for our common stock or that our common stock will ever be approved for trading on a recognized exchange .
There is no established public trading market for our securities. After this document is declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, we intend to seek a market maker to apply for a quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board in the United States. Our shares are not and have not been listed or quoted on any exchange or
quotation system. We cannot assure you that a market maker will agree to file the necessary documents with the OTC Bulletin Board, nor can there be any assurance that such an application for quotation will be approved or that a regular trading market will develop or that if developed, will be sustained. In the absence of a trading market, an investor may be unable to liquidate its investment, which will result in the loss of your investment.
Future sales of common stock by our directors and officers will likely cause the market price for our common stock to drop.
A total of 3,000,000 share of common stock were issued to our two officers and directors. They paid an average price of $0.001 per share. Subject to the restrictions described under "Future Sales by Existing Shareholders" on page 17 of this prospectus, they will likely sell a portion of their common stock if the price goes above $0.10. If they do sell their common stock into the market, the sales may cause the market price of the stock to drop.
D/KFR/779427.1
RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS
We have a limited operating history that you can use to evaluate us and therefore we may not survive if we meet some of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays frequently encountered by a start up company.
We were incorporated in April 2005 and on April 27, 2005 we acquired the business assets of TPZ Enterprises, including various trademarks associated with the Puppy Zone franchise system, franchise agreements and the training and operating manuals of the Puppy Zone franchise system. To date, we have focused our attention on fine tuning and marketing our Puppy Zone franchise system. Accordingly, you can evaluate our business, and therefore our future prospects, based only on a limited operating history. You must consider our prospects in light of the risks and uncertainties encountered by start up companies. To date, we have completed only part of our plan to become a successful dog day care franchisor. As a start-up company, we can provide no assurances that we will be able to make the necessary steps to achieve profitability in the future, such as expanding our customer base.
We are subject to all the substantial risks inherent in the commencement of a new business enterprise with new management. We can provide no assurance that we will be able to successfully generate revenues, operate profitably, or make any distributions to the holders of our securities. We have a limited business history for you to analyze or to aid you in making an informed judgment as to the merits of an investment in our securities. Any investment in our common stock should be considered a high risk investment because you will be placing funds at risk in an unseasoned start-up company with unforeseen costs, expenses, competition and other problems to which start-up ventures are often subject.
As we have such a limited history of operation, you will be unable to assess our future operating performance or our future financial results or condition by comparing these criteria against our past or present equivalents.
We may require additional funds to achieve our current business strategy and our inability to obtain additional financing will inhibit our ability to expand or even maintain our business operations .
We may need to raise additional funds through public or private debt or sale of equity to achieve our current business strategy. The financing we need may not be available when needed. Even if this financing is available, it may be on terms that we deem unacceptable or are materially adverse to your interests with respect to dilution of book value, dividend preferences, liquidation preferences, or other terms. Our inability to obtain financing will inhibit our ability to implement our development strategy, and as a result, could require us to diminish or suspend our development strategy and possibly cease our operations.
If we are unable to obtain financing on reasonable terms, we could be forced to delay, scale back or eliminate certain product and service development programs. In addition, such inability to obtain financing on reasonable terms could have a negative effect on our business, operating results, or financial condition to such extent that we are forced to restructure, file for bankruptcy, sell assets or cease operations, any of which could put your investment dollars at significant risk.
If we are unable to generate significant revenues from our operations, we may be unable to expand our Puppy Zone franchise system and may be forced to cease operations.
If we are unable to generate significant revenues from our future franchise arrangements with franchisees, we could be forced to delay, scale back or eliminate certain services and product development programs. We intend to develop and sell franchises in the dog day care industry. Ultimately the expansion of our franchises and featured destinations may allow us to become profitable. However, if we fail to generate significant revenues in the future, then we will not able to expand our product line as we anticipate. This failure to expand may hurt our ability to raise additional capital which could have a negative effect on our business, operating results, or financial condition to such extent that we are forced to restructure, file for bankruptcy, sell assets or cease operations, any of which could put your investment dollars at significant risk.
D/KFR/779427.1
We expect to experience significant and rapid growth in the scope and complexity of our business as our Puppy Zone franchise system gains acceptance in the market. If we are unable to hire additional staff to handle sales and marketing of our services and manage our operations, our growth could harm our future business results and may strain our managerial and operational resources.
If our Puppy Zone franchise gains acceptance in the market after our marketing campaigns, we expect to experience significant and rapid growth in the scope and complexity of our business. We will need to hire staff to market our franchise system, manage operations, handle sales and marketing efforts and perform finance and accounting functions. We will be required to hire a broad range of personnel in order to successfully advance our operations. This growth is likely to place a strain on our management and operational resources. If we fail to develop and implement effective systems, or hire and retain sufficient personnel for the performance of all of the functions necessary to effectively service and manage our future franchise relationships, or fail to manage growth effectively, our business will fail and you will lose your entire investment in our company.
If we are unable to hire and retain key personnel, then we may not be able to implement our business plan.
We depend on the services of our officers and directors, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx and Xxxxx Xxxxxxx. Our success depends on the continued efforts of these individuals to manage our business operations. At the present time, Xx. Xxxxxxx devotes approximately 15 hours per week and Xx. Xxxxxxx devotes approximately 5 hours per week to the business affairs of our company. The loss of the services of either Xx. Xxxxxxx or Xx. Xxxxxxx could have a negative effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, our success in expanding our business operations is largely dependent on our ability to hire highly qualified personnel. In addition, we may lose employees or consultants that we hire due to higher salaries and fees being offered by competitors or other businesses in the industry.
Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx'x control of our company may prevent you from causing a change in the course of our operations and may affect the market price of our common stock.
Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx beneficially owns approximately 66.67% of our common stock. Accordingly, for as long as Xx. Xxxxxxx continues to own more than 50% of our common stock, she will be able to elect our entire board of directors, control all matters that require a stockholder vote (such as mergers, acquisitions and other business combinations) and exercise a significant amount of influence over our management and operations. Therefore, depending on the number of our securities sold, your ability to cause a change in the course of our operations may be impeded. As such, the value attributable to the right to vote is limited. This concentration of ownership could result in a reduction in value to the common stock you own because of the ineffective voting power, and could have the effect of preventing us from undergoing a change of control in the future.
Other than trademarks registrations in Canada of the trademark "The Puppy Zone", "The Puppy Zone Dog Day Care and Adventure Centre" and the related designs and the trademark registration in the United States of the trademark "The Puppy Zone", we currently do not have any other formal protection for our intellectual property. If we are unable to protect our trade names, know how and trade secrets, our efforts to increase public recognition of our Puppy Zone franchise system may be impaired and we may be required to incur substantial costs to protect our name, know how and trade secrets.
Other than the trademark registrations described above, we have not made any applications for the protection of our intellectual property rights. As a consequence we may not be able to prevent the unauthorized use of our trade names, know how and trade secrets. We may be unable to prevent third parties from acquiring and using names or business methods that are similar to, infringe upon or otherwise decrease the value of our name, our know how, our
trade secrets and other proprietary rights that we may hold. We may need to bring legal claims to enforce or protect any intellectual property rights that we assert. Any litigation, whether successful or unsuccessful, could result in substantial costs and diversions of resources. Any claims, by or against us, could be time consuming and costly to defend or litigate, divert our attention and resources and result in the loss of goodwill associated with our trade names, know how, and trade secrets.
D/KFR/779427.1
Item 9 - Reporting Obligations
The Issuer is not a reporting issuer of any province in Canada. We are not required to deliver an annual report to our stockholders but will voluntarily send an annual report, together with our annual audited financial statements.

Item 10: Resale Restrictions

Item 11: Purchaser’s Rights
If you purchase these securities you will have certain rights, some of which are described below. For information about your rights you should consult a lawyer.
Two-Day Cancellation Right - You can cancel your agreement to purchase these securities. To do so, you must send a notice to the Issuer by midnight on the 2nd business day after you sign the agreement to buy the securities.
Statutory Rights of Action in the Event of a Misrepresentation - If there is a misrepresentation in this Offering Memorandum, you have a statutory right to xxx the Issuer:
|
(a) |
to cancel your agreement to buy these securities, or |
|
(b) |
for damages. |
This statutory right to xxx is available to you whether or not you relied on the misrepresentation. However, in an action for damages, the amount you may recover will not exceed the price that you paid for your securities and will not include any part of the damages that the Issuer proves does not represent the depreciation in value of the securities resulting from the misrepresentation. The Issuer has a defence if it proves that you knew of the misrepresentation when you purchased the securities.
If you intend to rely on the rights described in (a) or (b) above, you must do so within strict time limitations. You must commence your action to cancel the agreement on or before the 180th day after the date:
|
(a) |
on which payment was made for the Shares; or |
|
(b) |
on which the initial payment was made for the Shares, if payments subsequent to the initial payment are made under a contractual commitment entered into before, or concurrently with, the initial payment; |
or if your action is for other than to cancel the agreement, the earlier of:
|
(c) |
the 180th day after the date you first had knowledge of the facts giving rise to the cause of action; or |
|
(d) |
three years from the date: |
|
(i) |
on which payment was made for the Shares; or |
D/KFR/779427.1
|
(ii) |
on which the initial payment was made for the Shares, if payments subsequent to the initial payment are made under a contractual commitment entered into before, or concurrently with, the initial payment. |

|
2. |
Use of Estimates |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
|
3. |
Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share |
The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with FSAS No. 128 "Earnings per Share". SFAS No. 128 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury method and convertible preferred shares using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average shares price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. As of June 30, 2005 the Company had no warrants and/or options outstanding
|
4. |
Comprehensive Income (Loss) |
SFAS No. 130 "Reporting Comprehensive Income," establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive loss and its components in the financial statements. As at June 30, 2005, the company has no items that represent a Comprehensive loss in the financial statements.
|
5. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents |
The Company considers all highly-liquid investments with maturities of three months or less, at the time of issuance, to be cash and cash equivalents.

Organization Costs |
The Company has adopted the provisions of AICPA Statement of Position 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities" whereby all organization and initial costs incurred with the incorporation and initial capitalization of the Company were charged to operations as incurred.
|
7. |
Financial Instruments |
The fair values of Cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and loans payable to related parties approximate their carrying values due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments.
|
8. |
Research and Development Expenses |
Research and development expenses are charged to operations as incurred.
|
9. |
Advertising Expenses |
Advertising and marketing expenses are charged to operations as incurred.
|
10. |
Income Taxes |
The asset and liability method is used when accounting for income taxes. The deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability accounts, as recorded when material, are entirely the result of temporary differences. Temporary differences represent differences in the recognition of assets and liabilities for tax and financial reporting purposes, comprising primarily of accumulated amortization and unutilised non-capital losses. The deferred tax asset is related solely to the Company's net operating loss carry forwards' and is fully reserved.

Foreign Currency Translation |
The functional and reporting foreign currency is the United States dollar. Foreign currency transactions are occasionally undertaken in Canadian dollars and are translated into United States dollars using exchange rates at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are re-measured at each balance sheet date at the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Foreign currency exchange gains and losses are charged to operations. The Company has not entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
|
a. |
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 153 "Exchange of Non-monetary Assets - An Amendment of APB Opinion No. 29". The guidance in that Opinion, however, included certain exceptions to that principle. SFAS No. 153 amends Opinion No. 29 to eliminate the exception for non-monetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of non-monetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A non-monetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. The provisions of SFAS No. 153 are effective for non-monetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Early application is permitted and companies must apply the standard prospectively. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the company's results of operations or financial position. |
|
b. |
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R, "Share Based Payment" ("FAS 123R"), which is a revision of SFAS No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and its related implementation guidance. SFAS 123R establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transaction in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entities equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. SFAS 123R focuses primarily on accounting for transaction in which an entity obtains employee services in share based payment transactions with parties other than employees provided in SFAS 123 as originally issued and Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 96-18, "Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services". |
Note C - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
|
12. |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements (continued) |
SFAS 123R requires a public entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award (with limited exceptions). That cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award - the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). SFAS 123R requires that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements. That cost will be measured based on the fair value of the equity or liability instrument issued. Public entities other than those filing as small business issuers) will be required to apply SFAS 123R as of the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after June15, 2005. Public entities that file as small business issuers will be required to apply SFAS 123R in the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after December 15, 2005. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have material effect on the Company's results of operations or financial position.

In March 2005, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 ("SAB 107") to give guidance on the implementation of SFAS 123R. The Company will consider SAB 107 during implementation of SFAS 123R. |
Note D - Related Party Transactions
The Company received an additional advance of $5,000 from related parties. The total outstanding loans payable to related parties is $5,000.
Note F - Common Share Transactions
On April 27, 2005, the company sold an aggregate 3,000,000 shares of restricted, unregistered common shares for gross proceeds of $3,000. The Company relied upon Section 4(2) of The Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for an exemption from registration on these shares.
