Who let the dogs out?
We couldn’t resist sharing this early C20th photograph of a Cheshire gentleman and his furry friends… quite what they were up to is anyone’s guess, but they certainly seem raring to go.
The image is taken from an album of photographs of Cheshire taken by Norman Abbot of Didsbury and Wilmslow and gifted to the Library by his family.
