One of the categories in my postcard collection is DOGS. Yes I collect postcards of dogs. There are so many Beautiful and handsome breeds I should narrow my collecting avarice – I have tried to narrow myself to St. Bernards – but there are so many other beautiful dogs in this world …………I just keep adding to the collection.
I don’t know what breed of dog this is but the message is nice and the dog looks strong..
May your Birthday hours be bright
is the wish I send you.
May every year bring new delight
And loving friends attend you.
It’s a British card sent from Donaghadee Northern Ireland to a male named Sam on the Newtownards Road in Belfast. My husband grew up in this area in Northern Ireland. Donaghadee is not far from the Newtownards Road.
I think the card pre-dates my husband.
Not that I approve of fox hunting but the hounds are beautiful dogs.The postmark is Exeter Dec 23 05 (1905)
I currently wear many hats. My interests are genealogy, history, reading, knitting, and more. I now live in an assisted living retirement community.

I loved St Bernards as a child. Now I love them all. I used to travel through Exeter by train when I was at boarding school in the early 60’s.
