2nd Logo (March 14-August 1, 2010)

Visuals: In a cave, the screen pans over to see crudely drawn figures on a wall, one of which (the one in the center of the screen) is of a man walking his dog on a leash. The dog barks and the words "Walking Bud" in italicized letters and underlined appears at the bottom with the acronym "TKH" below in small type.
