The Complainant operates a major online retail store for pet supplies and pet wellness-related services under www.chewy.com, selling products such as pet food, treats, supplies, and veterinary pharmaceutical products. Founded in 2011, the Complainant earned almost US$ 12 billion in net sales in 2024.<\/p>\n
The disputed domain name redirects to a website which displays the Complainant's \"CHEWY\" logo, claims to be operated by the Complainant “Chewy, Inc.” and appears to offer pet supplies under the Complainant’s “CHEWY” trademark. The Complainant alleges that this website is an imitative website which the Respondent operates without the Complainant’s permission. The website is the same as the one that previously resolved at <chewy-outlet.com>, a domain name also registered by the same Respondent that was the subject of the Complainant's successful UDRP action a few months ago in Chewy, Inc. v. Bopan Zack<\/em>, CAC-UDRP-107505.<\/span><\/p>\n The Complainant contends that the Respondent has no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the disputed domain name, and that the Respondent is not related to the Complainant in any way. The Respondent does not carry out any activity for, nor has any business with, the Complainant. Neither license nor authorization has been granted to the Respondent to make any use of the Complainant’s “CHEWY” trademark, or to apply for registration of the disputed domain name.<\/span><\/p>",
