On this St. Patrick’s Day 2018 we are Pawsing for the An Post 2016 Irish Dog Breeds Stamps.
When I saw the tweet yesterday by Maureen Marion, who is the Official Media Relations @usps I knew it was perfect for today. I’m also including my previous blog posts for St. Patrick’s Day here remembering including introducing our Brittany Spaniel Cuddy back in 2015.
Pawsing for PostVox Irish Dog Breeds 2016 Stamps
Over at The Collectors’ Shop is this article from 2016.
“On the 10th March 2016, An Post issued four stamps to celebrate four uniquely Irish dog breeds: An Irish Wolfhound, an Irish Red Setter, a Sheepdog and a Kerry Blue.”
It is a really enjoyable article.
