Tuzigoot National Monument
Pets

Due to the extreme temperatures experienced in the park, dogs are welcome on the trails at Tuzigoot National Monument. If you visit during the summer months, please do not leave your dog in your parked vehicle. Even with the windows rolled down slightly, temperatures inside a locked car can climb to over 140 degrees!

However, all dogs must remain on a leash (no longer than 6 feet) and under control at all times. Pet owners are required to clean up after their dogs and prevent them from harming park plants and wildlife. Dogs are not allowed inside the visitor center at Tuzigoot.

Did You Know?
The Sinagua who built the ruins at Tuzigoot National Monument incorporated very few doors. Instead they used trapdoor type openings in the roofs, and used ladders to enter each room.
