For more than 25 years, I’ve helped passionate businesses build brands that hold up on the web and in the real world. I’m drawn to businesses with something genuine behind them, people who know their work, care about what they do, and have built something worth representing well.
That has led me across a wide range of industries, with particular expertise in the dog world. I work with professional gun dog trainers, breeders, and dog-focused brands, alongside independent retailers, service businesses, manufacturers, outdoor businesses, and others who value thoughtful, experienced creative work.
I build brand identity systems and websites that help businesses look as capable as they are. More importantly, I help them communicate clearly, position themselves accurately, and create a better experience for the people they serve.
My services include:
Everything is designed to work consistently across real-world applications—not just digital presentations.
MWH is intentionally small. You work directly with me from start to finish. No handoffs. No layers. No account managers. Just clear communication, thoughtful strategy, and work that stays aligned from concept to completion.
I’m Mike Hosier, founder of MWH Design, a one-person branding and web design studio in upstate New York not far from downtown Saratoga Springs.
While I work across various different industries where I can add value, my dog expertise came becuase I already lived in it.
In addition to MWH Design, I own and operate Dogs in the Wild Photography and Moose Golden Retrievers. These businesses aren't separate from my design work; they're part of the same ecosystem. They keep me connected to the people, challenges, and opportunities within this space every day.
That perspective allows me to bring more than design expertise to the table. It gives my clients the advantage of working with someone who understands both branding and the realities of operating a dog-focused business.
