Few pictures in this gallery show animal care rather than streets and buildings. This one shows a woman bandaging a dog at the Bide-A-Wee Home for Animals in New York, a shelter that served as a refuge for stray and abandoned pets in the early twentieth century. Around 1907, American animal welfare groups were growing, and photographs like this helped them show the public how shelters worked. The print carries a Byron, N.Y. copyright notice, and the date and title come from a caption card that has not been independently verified.
