Also, the experiences and friendships I've developed here I will cherish the rest of my life. I'm truly grateful to Randy and all of his staff for the opportunities presented to me here." Hunter Pappas 11/07/2008

     "This was one of the greatest things I ever die. I learned alot from great instructors and had fun doing so." Lisa Nelson 11/07/2008

     "WOW! What a wealth of knowledge! I have trained horses for 30 years and felt pretty confident with my knowledge of horses. I soon learned by attending this school, how little I really do know. I k now that I am in the right place and so far, I am amazed and appreciative of what I have learned. I look forward to future sessions at TIED. I know that I will take the knowledge that I have learned here and educate as many horse owners/handlers/trainers that I can." Patty Dague 11/07/2008

     "This school starts out with more information than you think you could possibly take in. With the help of all the instructors and 3rd & 4th timers, you can learn more than you ever thought possible making test day better than you thought it would be. Everything is setup for you to learn if you take advantage of it. Thank you!!!" Kenneth Martinez 11/07/2008

     "A true learning experience. Experienced teachers, assistants & staff. Quality facility, state of the art technical equipment. Friendly learning environment. Get out of it what you put in. Rewards can be great. Not for everybody/need to dedicate yourself. Had a great time and will be back to continue." Rusty Hamilton 11/07/2008

     "Equine Dentistry has changed me for the better. I now enjoy what I do, not only for the horses but for myself." Nick Coats 11/06/2008

     "All Instructors were professional, knowledgeable and to the point. The school is up to date and easy to be around." Larry Carow 11/07/2008

     "This school is the best in the world. Mr Randy is very good at teaching students what they need to know and preparing them to go out and work on their own. It is one of the best choices I've made to come to this school." JR Williams 11/07/2008

     "I have been to 2 class sessions and 1 wetlab.  I am continuing to be impressed with the whole experience.  The school is a rock solid organization with method and purpose.  All the hallmarks of professionalism are there: proficiency of instructors, a clear curriculum, caring attitudes and individual attention to the students.  If you want to learn equine dentistry, this is the place!  Mauri Langenberg 05/19/2008

 "I want to thank Josh for sticking it out with me the last 2 days. He was happy with  my work but before that, it was rough!  Thank you for teaching me the fundamentals. Overall, everyone was great both in the office and in the field. Benjamin Renteria 05/09/2008

   "I was around 3 of the instructors (Josh, Randy and Justin), I thought those guys were outstanding in what they do and I appreciate everything they did for me.  They were great teachers and great to talk to after school.  I look forward to coming back to school the very next time there is a class. I just want to thank everybody there for everything they did for me. Thank you!! Casey Chamberlain 05/09/2008

   " I have personally attended 4 different colleges and only graduated from 1. During my 2 weeks here at TIED, I never lost focus or interest and I enjoyed every part of it! Chad Smith 05/09/2008

   "First, I would like to thank everyone, Randy, Josh, Justin, Sherri, Heather for giving me the opportunity to work with horses for the rest of my life.  It was hard coming to a strange country for the first time but I was really made to feel welcome.  I saw some pretty cool stuff, got to ride on a cowboy saddle and do some roping.  Thanks to all the students for helping me speak slower and sticking with me and my fast talking! Hughie Ryan 05/09/2008

  "This has been an exciting 2 weeks!  This school was very educational, motivating and fun all at the same time. I think it was a perfect mixture of classroom lectures, demonstrations and wet labs. I will definitely be returning. I was a little apprehensive on which dental school to come to because 10 years ago I made the wrong choice for farrier school but after 2 weeks here, I am positive I made the right choice. Randy was a great instructor, the advanced students were alot of help and Josh taught in a way that was really easy to understand. I got to work alot w/Justin everyday in the lab and he was a great teacher. He would talk you through every step of the way. The overall atmosphere was great and my only complaint is that it's over and I can't wait to get back. Thank you Randy, Heather and all the instructors! Greg Drew 02/08/2008

   "I really enjoyed learning about the art of equine dentistry. Especially all the different aspects of it, from problems eating to all the different problems and solutions in riding. I am looking forward to coming back for the next 2 weeks. The staff was great, very knowledgeable instructors who are always willing to help. Thanks! Jesse Christensen 02/08/2008

   "The past 2 weeks have been very exciting for me. I've learned alot, not only about dentistry but about all aspects of the horse. It's been great! I have had alot of different jobs but now I've found a career. Danny Thompson 02/08/2008

   "This is the best decision I have made. The horses that I will hep will make it all worth while. It will make a good horse a great horse and a great horse an awesome horse. J.T. Parsons 02/08/2008

   "From day 1, helping horses is number 1. Randy and staff are hands on in the teaching process. You learn more than you can imagine in a small amount of time if you are willing to jump in and give it your all. I have been working with horses for 20 years and this was one of my greatest experiences! Dustin Lucas 02/08/2008   

   "Throughout the past 2 weeks, I have learned so much and have thoroughly enjoyed myself. Enrolling in the Texas Institute of Equine Dentistry has been one of my best decisions I have ever made.  Not only did I learn about proper equine dentistry, I also learned alot about myself and who I am as a person.  The people here are great, Randy, Josh, Sherri, Heather, Justin, Doc and all the students have made this experience all the greater.  If I had to change one thing, it would be me staying on site instead of at a hotel/friends home.  I can not honestly wait to continue my education and return here to see everyone.  Katrina Risk 02/08/2008

   "TIED is a great school! The facilities are wonderful, the instructors are great and have an extreme understanding of equine dentistry. At this institution, you learn the importance of proper techniques and good horsemanship. I would recommend this institute to any one who is serious in learning equine dentistry.  Arcel Alsup 11/09/2007

   "I just finished my first 2 weeks at TIED.  I think this school is worth the time and money that it takes. The instructors are very knowledgeable and willing to help you with anything you may need.  They are also very fun to be around and make the experience pleasant.  I also got along with the other students very well and I feel that I have made many new friends.  I learned a lot and I look forward to coming back next session.  The people here are passionate about equine dentistry and the health of horses so this is not the place to come if you are looking for a quick way to make money.  I have confidence that when I am done with the full program at TIED, I will be a very competent equine dentist.  Lynsey Miller 11/09/2007

   "I arrived knowing zero and I feel I am leaving w/buckets of knowledge. Randy and Josh are people w/a heart  and w/out them, this experience would be lacking.  I look forward to the next session with the same people!  Brandy Guthrie 11/09/2007

   "TIED is an incredible school!  Not only do they teach you how to float teeth, they also teach you better horsemanship skills.  The instructors are the best.  If they are hard on you it's only to make you better.  Thanks for everything! Ashley Riner 08/10/07

   "Equine Dentistry is more than just knocking or smoothing the buccal & lingual edges.  I never realized the importance of a balanced mouth until attending this school.  It all relates back to Form to Function terminology in horses.  Many behavior problems can be corrected in horses that I was not aware of.  I have been raised around and involved with horses my entire life and never knew the importance of proper dental techniques in horses.  It has definitely changed my outlook on things.  I am anxious to try to educate the public and help the horse industry better understand the horses' mouth. Kelly Slover 08/10/2007

   "The class is very informative.  The instructors are great and really work with you to make sure you understand and feel comfortable going out into the field.  The school has been great and I hope to continue my education and learn how to help many more horses. Robin Belardo 08/10/2007

   "Randy, I think you are a great instructor.  Your care for the students and horses is obvious and inspiring.  You have a great ability to see and develop talent in your students.  Autumn LaFollette 05/11/2007

   "TIED presents the perfect opportunity for students to come into a relaxed environment and learn equine dentistry.  I would like to thank Randy, Josh, Justin & Daniel for all their help and advice.  These guys have alot of patience and understanding when it comes to teaching equine dentistry.  I would especially like to thank Josh & Justin for having the patience in helping in the wetlab.  These guys are great instructors and equine dentists. Doyle Gibson 05/11/2007

 "I only ever dreamed of loving my job as much as I love equine dentistry!  We are so well equipped to help horses and educate their owners as we progress through the courses.  It's also refreshing to continue to strive to be better, learn more and want to keep coming back to school!  I've had great experiences here and made wonderful friends.  A door was opened for me to create a fantastic business and lifestyle.  The personal attention from the instructors here has been invaluable. (I also really enjoyed 74degrees & sunny in February).   Sasha Kone 02/09/2007

 "The goals of this school are very simple.  On the first day of class, Randy always says "If you are here to learn how to help horses and educate people, have a seat and we'll get started......If you are here to learn how to make money, you can see the secretary for a refund and go somewhere else".  Enough said!.  Joshua Wallace 01/29/2007

 "I want to start by saying that Randy Riedinger and the staff at T.I.E.D. are very friendly and will help you with anything you need.  The learning environment with the classrooms and the wetlab are an excellent way to learn the proper equine dentistry techniques.  I never knew how much there was to learn about this industry.  Randy strives to make all or as many of his students the best equine dentist they can be.  In my opinion...Randy is one of the most world renowned Master Equine Dentists out there.  When I was going through my first 2 weeks program, Randy was always advising me to what I could work on to get myself to progress and always to let me know when I was doing a good job.  I am happy to say that I will graduate and finish out my Advanced and Master levels of Equine Dentistry".  Duane Boone 11/10/2006
