#FlashbackFriday with the Historical Society: Farm dog c.1900


It’s time once again for #FlashbackFriday with the Whitewater Historical Society. This week we have another image from the Scholl collection of glass plate negatives from c.1900. To “celebrate” the “dog days of summer” here is a dog image. Scholl took many photos of everyday life and included lots of images of animals, mostly farm animals, but an occasional dog or cat. People did not necessarily have the number of “pets” we have today, but a farm dog was always appreciated. This farm dog looks like a happy guy!

Join us next week for more from the Whitewater Historical Society.
