Digital on-screen graphic

A digital on-screen graphic, (or a DOG as it is sometimes reffered to) is a watermark-like graphic onscreen that usually shows a logo or other graphic, the time or text. It can be used to notify or assist the viewer to see what channel they are viewing, and therefore is a form of on-air identity.

There is no rule enoforcing the use of a DOG on Network Six, and its usage is entirely up to the broadcaster. The Network's high definition channel, SixHD makes use of a DOG, alongside some of the digital channels. Some broadcasters are opposed to the use of DOGs, including Emoa Television which does not broadcast a DOG on its own franchises or Six Mix.
