As a dog owner myself, I've come at this with both a professional design eye and a from the heart point of view. My design uses a strong bold font on the words American and rescue - this captures the professional look you want to achieve. The dog word itself uses a softer font, a dog looking font. I've changed the top of the 'g' to have two ears like a dog, then the center of the 'g' has been made up with a dog nose shape or a heart nose shape - some options as I don't know what you'd prefer. The bottom part of the 'g' has a smile shape to show that you make these dog's life's much better by giving them a second chance to live a full life. I've also created a design that uses a life ring to represent the rescue aspect. I've shown how these designs can be created into button pin badges also - just so you can see how well the icon works. These designs would work very well for you as they have a balance of professionalism, seriousness and a heart felt cause. Please let me know what you think and if you'd like to see any changes to them. Thanks.
These designs show at first a dog within a house/kennel with the sun above - a new ray of life and comfort. But look again and you'll see it's also a person standing, watching over him, offering shelter, care, protection and love. There's a few variations, using the symbols that represent care, love, health and rescue, there's also a plain version. Let me know what you think and if you'd like to see any changes to fonts colors etc. thanks
Look first and these design represent a dog in it's house/kennel with the sun above - representing a new ray of life, security and comfort. Look again and you see a person, standing, watching over the dog - representing protection, securing, companionship, love, shelter. The colors represent america (blue & red) and dogs (tan). There's also a few variations, using symbols to represent the above. Let me know if you'd like to see any changes to color, font etc. Thanks.
