45 Rarely Seen Historical Photos That Tell a Lesser-Known Story

#26: A Girl and Her Dog Disappointed Outside the Vet, London, 1939

In a heartwarming scene captured in 1939 London, this touching photograph shows the disappointment shared between a young girl and her faithful canine companion. The duo stands together, reading a sign that reads, “No Dog Biscuits Today,” and are clearly unable to hide their feelings of disappointment.

We’re not sure how this dog was also aware that there would not be any biscuits on this day, but hey, dogs have an amazing sense of intuition. Back then, if there weren’t any dog biscuits in one store, you couldn’t just go over to the next one and expect to find some.
