Guichon Hotel · c. 1890
Owney received this hotel key check token while on a trip into Canada. The token would have been used to identify the key to room #32 at the Guichon Hotel in North Westminster, British Columbia, now a suburb of Vancouver, British Columbia. The dog probably arrived in town along the Canadian Pacific Railway in the early 1890s.
