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.

You have the funniest replys ever! and constructive too! kudos!
do horizontal mirror to the left first line dog and trasnform onto "L" shape
transform your doggies to initials shape
and increase a bit the paragraph high above certified groomer
yes I'm brazilian xD
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!
