The fact that she could not address the actual reason that I came to her, was ludicrously expensive, and then had the nerve to claim she had to told me that on the phone-- when I had expressed doubts DURING THAT CONVERSATION and she had insisted that something could be done over time-- so that I would drive an hour and a half each way to see her, was egregious. Along with her constant plugging of products that I didn't need (and she conveniently sold)-- and her suggestion that almost 2 hours of walking my dog a day isn't enough-- really what I got in this encounter was a $200 lesson on how to get my dog not to pull on a leash. I was told everything about my lifestyle with my dog is wrong, without her even asking for specifics on my dog's behavior or what is realistic given our setup. One size fits all approach, and the BONUS that changing all of it cannot improve his chances for safety or an improvement of behavior where it matters most. Chris didn't check that I understood how to do what she was saying. I repeatedly had to correct her on things that she had assumed about my dog. She put my dog in a situation with an unknown dog without asking me if it was okay or even warning me. Still most importantly at the end of the day, her only solution to my dog's behavioral problems was 24 hours a day policing or physical separation-- in other words, something I could have worked out on my own without shelling out a whole day and a couple hundred bucks. Chris is skeptical about "new school positive training" for dogs and maintains opinions that fly in the face of new research--- like tug of war being "practice" for aggression-- when studies have shown that isn't that case. She seems to think that nothing is wrong with making your dog lay in a confined space for hours on end with no stimulation. Honestly, the entire thing felt like a racket with her going through everything I said and saying it is wrong, and then at the end of the day telling me it wouldn't make any difference unless I could commit to keeping my dog locked up. it is so much easier to go through and nit-pick everything someone is doing to make someone feel like they are "getting advice" than it is to actually train a dog to think or behave in a different way. And frankly, although expressing greater dominance over a dog may have value, expressing no affection for and treating your dog like a freaking inanimate object to "establish first position dominance" is not the reason most people have dogs. I will be using the leash technique, something I had already heard but she fine-tuned, and one or two other pieces of advice, but as for an actual way to change his behavior I'm going to have to do a lot more research since she was unable to help me and unwilling to admit that help was possible. Frankly, I left her place discouraged, hopeless, angry, and annoyed at having to back down a 100 yard driveway that is inexplicably bedecked with an obstacle course full of cones. She also tried to upcharge me $30 for a collar, which I am mailing back to her after realizing it is half as much on amazon.

This was the coolest animal shelter I've ever been to. Not only were the animals happy and well…read morecared for, you could tell everyone that worked there really cared as well. They have a fantastic program set up for residents and visitors to the Aspen area where you can go and take the dogs for a walk, or a hike or spend the day with them at the park or your favorite coffee shop. Each dog is equipped with a coat that lets everyone know that he's "ADOPTABLE". That's what brought us in to just "look at" the dogs... The cages for the animals are large and clean, there is a HUGE area in the back with giant boulders that the big dogs can run up on and overlook the Aspen airport as well as the whole valley. The area where you can meet your prospective adoptee is also huge with park benches, a tree, balls and doggie treat so you can really hang out with and check out how your dog is going to behave. To help with funding they also offer grooming and boarding on premises. I think this place should be the model for all other shelters everywhere.. Just an amazing process and facilities. We couldn't be happier with our mixed breed lab pup.

All of these animals are great souls who just want someone to love and be loved by. The facilities are wonderful and have been completely revamped from what they used to be. Located right across from the airport, it is easy to get to, so stop by and say hello! Maybe you'll walk away with a new family member!

Maybe you have good insurance that will cover the whiplash you'll surely get if you're lucky enough to experience both his sides. My first phone call with Ted couldn't have gone better. He was friendly, easy to talk to, clearly communicated the important details about doing business with him, and his voice was full of joy when talking about his experiences with dogs at his place. I ended the conversation sure that I had found the absolute best place for my dog to stay while traveling. My second phone call a few days later was exactly the opposite. I called to ask three simple questions, questions that all the other kennels I've called answered with no problem. (For those curious, the questions were about how to modify my reservation on the antiquated reservation system and two follow up questions from our previous conversation about what to bring with my dog.) I've never experienced such unprofessional behavior. Interrupting, talking over me, insisting I was saying things that I was not, threatening to cancel my reservation if I didn't stop "being a problem". Needless to say I will never be boarding my dog here. Ted, do you have an evil twin that is trying to ruin your business?

So, I did his one month board and train starting the new year in January and picked my boy up in February. Not only did my dog still have not the slightest clue on how to walk on a leash, he also had NO basic obedience skills training. When I got my dog home, we discovered his groin area covered in scabs. After a couple days of warm baths and hydrogen peroxide over the area, his scabs came off revealing puncture wounds. He was bitten by something where he was being kept. Ted had said my dog would be kept comfortable in his home. Since my dog's feet were stained yellow and he had some type of bite, he was apparently put somewhere and kept where he was totally neglected. I had a number of friends and family planning on taking their dogs to Ted for training but waiting to see how my little guy did first before they made that kind of investment. Not only have they changed their minds, but they are also letting everyone they know of my experience. Absolute scam! My dog was abused and I will be reporting my experience to everyone I come across and filing formal complaints. I'm an honorably discharged combat veteran and have worked very hard only to have my money stolen and my dog harmed. This minor yelp review is only the beginning. Hopefully, it will save someone else money, time and heartache. I have a sinking feeling I am not the only person who has been harmed by this so called trainer. Hopefully, I will be the last.
