Owney was a brown - and- white dog.His first owner was a postal clerk in Albany,New York.He let Owney walk to work with him each day.Owney seemed to like the feel and smell of mailbags,and he spent his days sleeping among them.When his owner left his job in
Albany, Owney stayed behind.
Owney became friends with the other mail clerks in the Albany post office, and he continued to spend time resting near the mailbags.Finally, he began following the mail onto mail trains.At first ,he rode local trains,but soon he was travelling all over
the country.
No train,carrying Owney ever had an accident,so mail clerks decided he was a good- luck dog.It is believed that Owney was given a tag (标牌 ) that said Owney, Post Office, Albany, N.Y.As Owney rode trains around the country,postal clerks added tags to his collar (颈圈 ) to show where he'd been.When Owney began appearing in post offices and towns around the country,his fame spread.Not only were the postal clerks adding tags to his collar, but people
in towns were,too.
The weight of the tags became too heavy for Owney.Postal clerks began mailing tags back to the Albany post office,where they were put on display (展览 ). The U. S.Postmaster General even had a harness马具( ) made for Owney so the weight of his tags
could be spread out over his body.
Owney's travels took him to almost all of the states in the country.He also made at least six trips to Canada and possibly one to Mexico.In 1895,Owney even made a trip around the world with the mail service.Newspapers printed stories about him,and he became
world- famous.
