Cattail Silhouette Logo Design for Boarding Barn and Veterinarian Facility

Bulrush Equine Centre is a beautiful equestrian facility located in Michigan City, Indiana. Dr. Scott Baldwin DVM, CVCP, CVMA, and his wife Melissa strive to provide boarders, training clients, and veterinary clinic patients with the best possible experience. Dr. Baldwin’s background includes both holistic and traditional veterinary medicine. He incorporates a variety of treatment methods into his practice, including chiropractics, laser therapy, herbs, preventative care, nutrition, and acupuncture. He also has a special interest in ultrasonography, equine, and small ruminant medicine. The farm’s veterinary clinic area includes exam rooms and isolation stalls. The cattail silhouette we incorporated into their logo represents ‘Bulrush’ – another word for Cattail.

Aside from the Baldwins’ veterinary clinic, Bulrush Equine Centre also offers full-service boarding and training. The facility boasts an indoor heated arena, twenty seven 12×12 stalls, wash racks, and heated tack rooms, as well as turnout paddocks for the horses to enjoy grazing. The facility has all the amenities that equestrians appreciate, but having an onsite business owner that is also a veterinarian is certainly a huge perk.

Boarders can rest easy knowing that in the event of an emergency, their horse will be receiving care from a professional that is familiar with the horse in everyday life. Knowing the horses in such a familiar individual nature allows the Baldwins’ to quickly identify if a horse is feeling under the weather based on subtle changes in its daily behavior patterns. This allows for prompt treatment that can help avert costlier emergencies.

Beautiful Cattail Silhouette Logo Design for Silver Dapple Morgan Breeder

Bulrush Equine Centre is also home to the Baldwins’ silver dapple Morgan breeding program. Three color dilutions are found in the Morgan breed, and silver is the least common. In 2018 there were only around 100 silver dapple Morgans. The silver gene only affects black-based horses, so if a black, bay, buckskin, or other black based horse color carries the silver gene the horse will be silver. “Silver” is in fact more of a chocolate color with distinct dapples. UC Davis offers a test for silver dapple so that horse owners can determine whether their horse will pass on the silver coloring if bred. 

Silver dapple Morgan horses have been determined to be descendents of a 1916 cross of a stallion named Dan and a mare named Nellie Skinner. Quite a bit of research and record keeping has been done on these unique Morgan horses courtesy of The Silver Dapple Morgans Project. The project is dedicated to keeping up with silver dapples and their offspring to keep an accurate count of these uniquely colored horses and researching the science behind the color.

Inspiration for Cattail Silhouette Logo Gleaned From Indiana Boarding Barn & Morgan Breeder’s Business Name

After speaking with the Baldwin family during their brainstorming session, our artists put together some ideas for a rough sketch of their custom logo design. A vector style Morgan horse design would be the focal point of the hand drawn logo. A distinctly masculine Morgan stallion faces away from the viewer, looking back toward his powerfully muscled hindquarters. His flaxen/silver mane and tale hint of the unique colors found in the silver dapple Morgan horses that the farm produces.

The regal Morgan horse is situated next to acattail silhouette, a nod to the company name of this pristine farm. We created this cattail silhouette logo in a square framed style, with the business name partially displayed in a blue/green gradient colored accent box in a crisp sans serif font. The colors of the gradient add a peaceful, serene aesthetic to this stunning hand drawn custom logo. Thecattail silhouette design can be easily resized to fit beautifully on business cards, customer invoices, brochures, banners, and more for personalized visual branding.

No matter what the scope of your equestrian business is, it would be our honor to have a part in creating a custom logo design that highlights your company in a personalized manner.
