The Cleveland Browns are getting a new logo. The franchise decided that it needed a new logo and created a fan contest. The contest got the top creators out there competing to create their best version of the bullmastiff dog, the breed that many people voted as the ‘dawg’ that best represented the Browns franchise.

And now, on Monday, the Browns officially unveiled their new ‘dawg’ logo selected by fans and players. The winning design was created by a Browns fan named Houston Mark, who included several things representing the Cleveland-based franchise in a menacing-looking bullmastiff dog. The logo will be prominently featured in the merchandise and other team uses according to reports.

“We are so excited to unveil a new dawg logo that perfectly encapsulates who we are as a franchise and as a city,” Executive Vice President JW Johnson said. “Our fans have been asking us for a new dawg logo for quite some time, so it made perfect sense for them to select the logo themselves and decide how they want our team to be represented — and they made a great choice.”

Houston Mark included several different references to the Browns franchise and fandom in his logo design. His references include Ohio (Browns’ home), football, the east end zone, guitar pick, spikes, guardian bridge, pound helmet, and helmet stripe.
