A History of Dogs on Postage Stamps
Dog postage stamps have a long and rich history.

Since then, countless dog breeds have been immortalized on stamps, from the Basset Hound and Dalmatian to the Yorkshire Terrier and Siberian Husky.
Dogs have become an increasingly popular subject in stamp collecting, offering something for everyone, from famous dogs in history like Lassie, to the postal dog Owney, to the celebrated space explorer, Laika.
