Mountain Dogs — Local services in Leadville

My husband and I came to Leadville for the month of April to work remotely and spend time in the mountains. We brought our 12 month old Brittany Spaniel. We knew that we would be taking him with us most places, but wanted a place for him to spend the day when we went skiing or various adventures on the weekends.
