Like a lot of more rural places in the desert southwest, Taos Pueblo was lousy with desert dogs.

There are residential dwellings in Taos Pueblo, but the ones you're given access to are primarily used for shops. I was a bit more interested in people who really lived in the village, but either that's something you don't get on the dime [1] tour, or they just keep to themselves.



[1] Not really a dime. Also, they charge you $6 per camera. Betsy snuck hers in though, since she was less obviously "carrying". ;)

The biggest attraction in Taos is the pueblo that gives the city its name. Looking at it, you would never guess the village is just over a thousand years old, and has had people living in it continuously for all that time.
