ABOUT

​

Telluride Avalanche Dogs play a unique and vital role in mountain rescue and safety education efforts in the Telluride community. 

​

Our organization is dedicated to providing financial and foundational support for Telluride's hardworking avalanche dogs.

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.
