This is cute. you know, i like that drawing style, and I don't know why, I have the image of a dog sitting in a chair with a blowdryer in front of him drying him off, but in a cartoony way with his hair being blown back or maybe sitting with one of those big salon type hairdryers over his head.

Regardless, I like this, but i would make the cions on the backside bigger. you have all that wasted room in the back there it's a damn shame.

I'd thicken up the font on the front side too, it seems rather flimsy. Love the concept.

I think the dog in the top right and bottom left are too similar compared to the other two. At a glance they look like the same image,
Also make sure the logo on the front is centered!

nice and clean, looks good.

16 billion colours and you choose the one i cant create !??!

Love this, but it needs a little work imo. Blue and green dog are too similar for me too and yellow dog is smaller than the others - he's out of proportion. Then the dogs as a whole need to go up in size - especially on the front. The name can go on one line to make room if necessary (or the dogs could be set in a straight line). The contact info needs to be bigger and moved up as well - way too close to the edge. You need 1/8" margin minimum.

The biggest problem is yellow dog is disappearing - I'd try to replace that color with something else (too bad, because these colors work well together). If nothing else add at least a tiny bit of magenta (or cyan) to that yellow to give it some tooth. Maybe beefing up the stroke on the dog outlines just a bit will help too.

Good job in general though - it's easy to see the corporate image here.

I like this, too, but agree with the comments already offered. Also, and maybe this is just weird me, but I think the dog in the lower right section looks kind of like a mouse -- or if not that, like it's a dog humping someone's leg, as dogs will do.

With just a little tweaking, this will be a terrific card. I like the rounded edges for this client. It's well-groomed. Ahem.

I need to ask: Are those stock images? I believe I've seen very simulair dog drawings in iStock. I wouldn't recommend using those as a logo.

Agree with Mara's rat humper--good eye Mara. Perhaps take qwertyale's idea and mirror the top left-hand dog illustration and flop to replace the humper.

Overall, nice work!
