Dear Abby - Vintage Easter Cards with Dogs

Dear Friends,

I hope you are having a good week!  It is beautiful Spring weather here and I am looking forward to Easter weekend.  I thought you might enjoy sharing some vintage Easter cards today.  They all include dogs!

This is one of my favorites!  A sweet puppy sits outside of a cute storybook cottage on this vintage Easter card.


I hope you enjoyed these vintage Easter cards, and I wish you a wonderful holiday weekend!

Next week I will begin my new series about pet collectibles.  If you collect any pet themed items, I would love to include your pictures at the blog!  Just let me know (with your email) in the comments.  Thanks!

Love,

Abby xoxoxo

Abby, these are such lovely vintage Easter cards. I love sending and receiving greeting cards. What a happy Easter post! It is interesting to see how the dachshunds are pictured in older days. The breed look has really changed over the years.

Thanks for visiting!

Barbara, I agree with you -- the look of dachshunds has really changed over the years.

Love,
Abby
