By 1925, they had moved to advertising on Mail Pouch Barns. They were best known for their Mail Pouch chewing tobacco. Rodgers had carried the first transcontinental U.S. Mail pouch. A few seconds later, the dog unburied the second mail pouch. It is sealed using a lead seal (not a lock as in a mail pouch). Mail Pouch chewing tobacco is still produced by Swisher International Group. About 20,000 Mail Pouch barns spread across 22 states in the 1960s. Among these names are mail sack, mail satchel, mail pouch, catcher pouch, mochila, and portmanteau. Owney guarded the mail pouch until someone from the Post Office showed up.
