`
`TRADEMARK:
`
`SERIAL NO.: 88/2125 l8
`
`ARGUMENTS
`
`shaping the
`full-r: of
`nenuhcare
`
`The Examiner has refused registration of the Applicant’s mark
`
`based on an alleged likelihood.
`
`of confusion with the mark VIRBAC SHAPING THE FUTURE OF ANIMAL HEALTH. The
`
`Applicant submits that there is no likelihood of confusion in this case in View of the significant
`
`differences in the marks and the sophistication of the purchasers.
`
`A. DIFFERENCES IN THE lVIARKS
`
`The Applicant has already submitted extensive arguments and evidence highlighting the
`
`differences in the marks including:
`
`(1) Case law suppo1ting Applicant’s position that the first word in a mark is likely to
`
`have the greatest impact on consumers and therefore VIRBAC is the dominant
`
`portion of the cited mark and will be the most remembered portion of the mark.
`
`(2) Numerous third-party registrations showing the weakness and narrow range of
`
`protection afforded to the wording SHAPING THE FUTURE OF, including
`
`numerous coexisting registrations.
`
`(3) Dictionary definitions
`
`showing that HEALTH and HEALTHCARE have
`
`different meanings.
`
`(4) Case law supporting Applicant‘s position that consumers in the field of health
`
`and medicine are sophisticated consumers who are not likely to be confuse the
`
`marks .
`
`

`

`In addition to these arguments, the Applicant further disputes the Examining Attomey’s position that
`
`SHAPING THE FUTURE OF HEALTHCARE has the same connotation as VIRBAC SHAPING
`
`THE FUTURE OF ANIMAL HEALTH and is likely to be Viewed as a shortened fom1 of the
`
`Registrant’s Mark based on the following:
`
`(I) The word VIRBAC is unquestionably the dominant element of the Registrant’s Mark, not
`
`only because it is the first word in the mark. but also because it is the only arbitrary/non-
`
`suggestive wording in the mark. The word VIBRAC is the core of the Registrant ’3 Mark
`
`and is the element that consumers will perceive as the source indicating element of that
`
`mark. It is highly unlikely that a shortened form of the mark VIRBAC SHAPING THE
`
`FUTURE OF ANIMAL HEALTH would leave off the essential element VIRBAC.
`
`That the most likely shortened form of the mark VIRBAC SHAPING THE FUTURE
`
`OF ANIMAL HEALTH is VIBRAC alone is supported by the official record which
`
`shows no other registration by this company for the wording SHAPING THE FUTURE
`
`OF
`
`but three additional registrations for VIRBAC and VIRBAC AND DESIGN
`
`Without any additional wording. Copies of the Registrant’s addition VIRBAC
`
`registrations are attached.
`
`(2) There is clearly a difference in connotation between the wording ANIMAL HEALTH
`
`and HEALTH CARE. ANIMAL HEALTH is inextricably linked to the health of animals.
`
`In contrast. the word “healthcare” by itself, is not likely to be interpreted to mean animal
`
`care. Healthcare alone, would be interpreted to refer to the care of humans. The Applicant
`
`attaches additional Internet excerpts defining the wording “healthcare.” It is clear that this
`
`term by itself does not suggest care for animals. For this reason, ANIMAL HEALTH does
`
`not connote the same thing as HEALTHCARE.
`
`

`

`(3) The Examining Attoiney asserts that the Applicant has not submitted evidence that the
`
`consumers for the goods are sophisticated consumers. The Applicant submits that the fact
`
`that the consumers are professional consumers is evident from the description of services
`
`which in the Applicant’s application specifies that
`
`the services relate to business
`
`consultancy, consulting services for business managers. consultancy for medical facilities
`
`and clinics. bills for medical sen-ices, etc. None of these services would be directed to
`
`general consumers. By the very definition of the services they are directed to business
`
`professionals.
`
`For the reasons stated in detail in Applicant’s earlier responses and for the additional reasons
`
`stated herein, the Applicant submits that there is no likelihood of confusion between the Applicant’s
`
`Mark and the registered mark cited by the Examining Attorney. The Applicant therefore requests that
`
`the citation be Withdrawn.
