What this record means
The record shows that the mark “WAGGIN’ TAILS” is dead, having been abandoned on October 21, 2019 because the applicant, Patricia Caroline Bowers, failed to respond to an Office action. The mark was filed on December 24, 2018 and was on the Principal Register. It covered dog bandanas and bow ties in class 024, with first use in commerce on February 10, 2017. Because the mark is no longer active, it does not give the owner control over every use of the wording, but the specific goods listed—dog bandanas and bow ties—remain the closest area of concern for a similar name. The prosecution history shows a straightforward sequence of a non‑final action and abandonment, with no supplemental register steps. No enforcement activity such as oppositions or cancellations appears in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the main risk lies in the dog‑accessory market, where the abandoned mark still signals a prior claim.
