While waiting for the rest of my team to comment, here are some initial thoughts. I like the more horizontal treatments, especially #36 with the hot dog and ketchup splat exclamation point. In all of them, I like the dog character holding hot dogs...it is the right "dog attitude" and holding the hot dogs gets customers right into the category. Focusing on #36 for now, I question a couple of things...the design element with the black line looks like a cartoon strip "speech bubble" to me, but perhaps I am being too literal. Also, the yellow circle only shows up to frame the dogs mouth and hot dogs he is holding. But the yellow in that area sort of comes out of nowhere. Also, we need to add TM small next to the words Bad Dog!
