/ Project Overview

Project Overview

We partnered with Sniffy Walks, a UK-based pet services brand specialising in bespoke dog walking, nose-enrichment walks, and tailored training sessions for furry companions. Sniffy Walks focuses on letting dogs explore their world through scent-led experiences- engaging their natural instincts while keeping them happy and healthy. 

 

Our role was to craft a distinctive, memorable logo and visual identity that reflects the brand’s playful energy and deep understanding of canine behaviour. This logo serves as the cornerstone for all their digital and offline touchpoints, ensuring consistency and recognisability across platforms.

/ Challenges

  • Translating the unique concept of sniff-focused dog experiences into a simple but meaningful logo.

  • Balancing professional credibility with the warmth and joy associated with pet-centric services.

  • Creating an identity that works seamlessly across social media, web, print, and signage for local pet owners.

/ Objectives

  • Design a logo that visually communicates joy, trust, and canine curiosity.

  • Establish a versatile mark that scales well for avatars, signage, merchandise, and promotional materials.

  • Ensure the identity resonates with pet owners looking for both professional care and engaging experiences for their dogs.

/ Execution

Our design process was rooted in early exploration and refinement:

  • Discovery & Visual Research: Studied dog behaviour, sniff walk concepts, and competitor identities to inform creative direction.

  • Concept Development: Created multiple logo concepts balancing elements of movement, scent exploration, and playful character.

  • Refinement: Selected a mark that integrates a stylised dog silhouette with subtle motion cues- reflecting both the walking experience and joyful curiosity.

  • Typography & Palette: Chose a friendly, clean typeface and warm, pet-friendly colour palette that projects approachability and trust.

/ Outcome

The final logo for Sniffy Walks became a visual ambassador for the brand- distinctive, relatable, and instantly recognisable to pet lovers. It reinforced the company’s positioning as a trusted, caring, and fun partner in canine wellbeing and set the tone for all future brand communications.

 

The identity continues to serve as the foundation for Sniffy Walks’ social presence, merchandise elements (like leashes and bandanas), and community outreach materials- helping the brand connect emotionally with dog owners while standing out in the UK pet services landscape.
