Description: Feathers and Fur. You should see both the dog and the bird in the mark. What you see first is not important, rather, I wanted to viewer to take a second look at it. For this version I have removed the leaves/collar so as always, comments are welcome.

@joe, @michael - thanks guys.**I'm just wondering if the bird is as easy seen as easily as before. This version seems cleaner and also has only three colors now.

Idea - if you put one leaf to hang from the branch it might also look as a dog tag! By the way, I kind of see that my 'Fetcher' logo was maybe a source for inspiration here, am I right? :)

Hi type08, I did initially have the leaf hang from the branch like you suggested (as the dog tag) but as joe and michael said, they prefer this version without. It's a little cleaner and also just used the three colors instead of adding the green too.**As for inspiration, the idea of the combination hit me out of the blue while sketching, and I never actually looked at other designs for inspiration prior to drawing. Unless it somehow had a subconscious impact here...

All good man, I just had that feeling, no probs at all. Well, I didn't see the first version of it but I also didn't mean to go with the green here (a brown leaf would suffice). I think that it wouldn't make it more complex but it would def add a little bonus to it...

Yes very clever. Took me a while to see bird, I think because of the small dot for eye.

Your logo is currently on the front page of Reddit!

Kind of strange to see this logo here so often and then see it at the top of a completely different website I visit every day!
