There has never been an Algonquian tribe.

The second "a" in Algonquian makes it an adjective, meaning "like the Algonkin" - a small tribe who have always lived in the Ottawa valley between Ontario and Quebec.

Algonquian refers to a huge family of different but related languages spoken over a very wide area of the USA and Canada, all of them distantly related to the language spoken by the Algonkin. The Algonquians include the Cheyenne, Blackfoot and Arapaho of the Great Plains; the Illinois, Sac, Fox and Cree further east; the Ojibwa, Potawatomi and Ottawa north of the Great Lakes and the Shawnee, Delaware, Abanaki, Powhatan, Mahican, Massachusset, Nipmuc, Pennacook, Wappinger and many, many more tribes living along the east coast.

DID THE Algonquin Tribe have pets?

The Algonquin Tribe did not have pets in the same way that many people do today. They primarily relied on animals for hunting, food, and transportation rather than companionship. However, they did have a close relationship with dogs, which were used for hunting and as pack animals. While not pets in the modern sense, dogs were valued members of their communities.
