Design firm Bobbye Chochran + Associates won two American Graphic Design awards from Graphic Design USA magazine for packaging designed for pet treat company Lincoln Bark.

Awards were given for Lincoln Bark's Treat Smart dog treats and Doggie Sprinkles. Open to the graphic arts community, the 2012 competition had more than 8,000 entries. Winners received an awards certificate and will be published in early winter in a printed and online annual design issue of the magazine.

"In my opinion, a large part of Lincoln Bark's recent success should be attributed to Bobbye's exceptional package designs. The products stand out on shelves thanks to their bright colors and fun designs," said Michelle Laing, Lincoln Bark's director of marketing.
