Our entire ranch is our sniffspot. Feel free to come through the gate, shut it so the horses don't get out, and come on up the hill. To the right you will see "Fire & Ice" this is our ice skating rink and fore pits for the winter. This is a great area to base camp while you and your puppy explore. While you are here, feel free to sniff around anywhere with the exception of the buildings, or any of the campsites which may have a camper with us here at Enchanted Circle Campground. We are the number 1 Campground in NM 3 years in a row, so we ask that you leave those guests to their privacy, and they will do the same for you. Check us out on Hipcamp.com if you are curious about the Campground. For the sniffspots you are able to explore the trails, the lakes, the ponds, or anywhere else your tail may take you. Enjoy your time. Call us if you need anything. Have a great time and see you soon. There are also tennis balls at the games area with the swings for the puppies. Help yourself. Please leave them for other puppies to play too. Gate code is 2023 bottom right button.

What people say about dog parks around Taos, New Mexico

Lidia A.

July 2025

Loved this spot! My dog had a wonderful time running around. There are some tennis balls, a frisbee, and a squeak toy scattered about the yard, so I’m sure your dog will find something to play with while running around. There is a dog who lives next door, so we could hear him, but it didn’t bother my dog since we couldn’t see him (that part of the fence is a wooden privacy fence). The yard is huge and has a beautiful view of the mountains. There was also water and poop bags supplied. I would definitely come back here if I lived in town!

Large yard, perfect for letting our dog run. Host provided clean water, paw wash and towel for muddy paws. We didn’t need the towel but thoughtful touch. We will be back.

Frequently asked questions about Taos dog park

Are dog parks good for dogs?

It is important for dogs to have off leash exercise to sniff and run. But the free and open nature of public dog parks has drawbacks. There could be aggressive dogs, disease transmission and cleanliness issues. For this reason, many dog behaviorists discourage visiting public dog parks and recommend Sniffspot's private dog parks. Sniffspot private dog parks only allow one guest to book at a time and are not open to the public, which solves many of these issues.

Are dog parks safe?

While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 41% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Taos area are 5 stars.

How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?

You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 4 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 7 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
