"Pet Puppies" is a chromolithograph from the "Household Pets" series issued by William S. Kimball & Co. in 1891. The image depicts a young woman surrounded by four adorable puppies, one of which she is holding. This charming card, likely intended for trade card advertising, showcases the popularity of pets in the late 19th century. The woman's soft expression and the playful pups evoke feelings of warmth and affection, highlighting the bond between humans and animals.
