Telluride Avalanche Dogs
A behind the scenes look at the working dogs of the Telluride Ski Patrol. Follow the paw prints of Lady Bee, Sadie, Mona, Doris, Wiley and Bajuko on an avalanche rescue training mission in Telluride, Colorado. Telluride Avalanche Dogs play a unique and vital role in mountain rescue and safety education efforts in the Telluride community. Telluride Avalanche Dogs are trained to perform under pressure in rescue situations, providing a fast and effective means of locating buried avalanche victims - often faster and more effectively than their human counterparts.
TAD was granted a 501 c 3 non-profit status. Its purpose is to provide a funding stream for the hard working and highly trained rescue teams which provide 365 day coverage for emergencies in and around the Telluride region.
