This album features our four-legged best friend: the dog. Whether helping with everyday chores or chaperoning the children, dogs have been full members of Québec City families for generations. Come and see them for yourself, with all their good company and loyalty, in these photos dating back to the early 20th century. What memories do these images from a bygone era stir for you?
