Our Roots
We’re a family-owned and operated business with our doors open in Denver since 2005. How did it all begin? Here’s a rough timeline.
1997
Boy Meets Girl
Dan Mulligan meets Jenny Freece at a BBQ Jenny was hosting. When they were introduced, Jenny handed Dan some grilling utensils and said, “Can you help?” They have been working together ever since.
1997
1998
Things are heating up
It’s getting serious. Dan and Jenny pull the trigger on adopting a puppy together. She is a yellow lab named Maggie.
1998
2001
Deep in it
Cruising toward the major life milestones, there has been moving and working and traveling and now marriage.
2001
2005
The business is born (and a couple kids)
Daughter #1 is born, and daughter #2 is on the way. For maximum chaos, an idea is proposed. “Let’s start a business. It will be called YellowDog Printing & Graphics.”
See what we did there?
2005
2006
We become bosses
We hire our first two employees. Bossing is hard, but we must be doing something right. Matt is still with YellowDog today!
2006
2010
People seem to like us
Our client base is growing as fast as our kids. We’re working with some great Colorado businesses and nonprofits. We ♥ our customers!

2014
Goodbye, Maggie. Hello Lucy!
Our beloved yellow labrador Maggie crosses the rainbow bridge. YellowDog 2.0 is born. Welcome Lucy, our new yellow mascot.

Sprouting our digital services
Our best clients are asking for more than just print. They want one-stop-shopping for design, marketing, and printing. Well, ask and you shall receive. yellowDogLab is open for business.
2017
2018
We need a bigger doghouse
Turns out customer service and one-stop-shopping was a winning combination. YellowDog has 13 employees, yellowDogLab has 5. We’ve outgrown our space! We double our square footage by building out an awesome warehouse studio east of Denver’s RiNo Arts District.
2018
2019
YellowDogLab and
YellowDog Printing & Graphics
Is just too darn confusing. It’s same great company, same great people but too many names. In preparation for our move, we decide to rebrand. We are now YellowDog. Just like our pups, we are always happy to see you.

2019
The grand reopening
We’ve hauled our giant printers over to our new studio. We’ve launched our new YellowDog logo and branding. Now it’s time to celebrate! We throw a big housewarming party at our new location.

2020
Weathering the pandemic storm
Just when we’re celebrating big milestones, winning awards, and growing fast, COVID-19 strikes and takes a big bite out of business. Nevertheless, we rally to keep employees on board and keep delivering sky-high design, print, and marketing services.
2020
2021
Bouncing back bigger
We’re growing our team to its biggest-ever size to meet rebounding demand. True to form, we gained woman-owned business (M/WBE) certification through the City of Denver and Environmental Leadership Program Bronze status through the State of Colorado.

Our Core Values
Purpose powers everything we do. Over the years, three core values have emerged to guide our decisions and company culture. Today, these core values are codified as an awesome large-scale mural on our wall that we illustrated and installed ourselves.
Curiosity. We ask tons of questions, fall down rabbit holes of idea exploration, and challenge ourselves to grow our talents and experiences. We believe that understanding our customers helps them to understand theirs.
Creativity. This is a given for a design and marketing studio, obviously. But creativity is more than what we bring to work. It’s who we are and how we’re wired. Almost every YellowDogger has some kind of artsy, craftsy, or creative passion.
Community. We love our Denver home. We are inclusive, open and actively engaged with the local community. Staff volunteer days, in-kind giving, community partnerships, and a 15% discount for nonprofit organizations are just a few of the ways we give back.
