Un Attelage de Chien a Quebec, Canada - A Dog Cart
(#4 of a series: Working Dogs of Quebec) [Source: private postcard collection]

This is a really lightweight looking dog cart. It almost looks like a dog racing cart - especially with the boy's Peaky Blinders hat 😃 I've found no evidence of dog cart racing in early 20thC Gaspe, though there is winter dog racing with sleds.

Gaspe, Quebec dogcart
(#3 of a series: Working dogs of Quebec)

This is another vintage postcard from my private collection. I find the homemade construction of the cart interesting- especially the wheels which appear to be made from cross sections of tree trunks.

@aljazeera A few years ago I was able to observe Bonaventure Island from a boat when I visited the #Gaspe. I was lucky enough to observe #Puffins both in flight and nesting and it's one of my fondest memories.

I’m writing an article on the use of raw #fish as #manure around the north #Atlantic #coast. Focusing on the Gulf of St Lawrence in #nineteenthcentury where I have lots of official stats of fish caught for this purpose. Lots of eye-witness accounts too. But I’m after #farm #accounts, #diaries etc. Does anyone know of any, espec. for the #Gaspé peninsula? Any pointers gratefully received. #EnvHist #AgHist #Canada #Capelin #Herring
