Owney the dog, the famous postal mascot, died in 1897. After being retired from his travels with the railway mail service, he was found wandering the streets of Albany, New York, in poor health. He was later taken in by the postal workers but, unfortunately, he passed away shortly thereafter, likely due to old age and the effects of his adventurous life. His body was preserved and is now displayed in the Smithsonian National Postal Museum.
