dmcarty: They did the same thing to Indians when they took the children away from the reservation and sent them to Carlisle, PA Indian School, among other places. If they were caught speaking their native language, they were beaten. I guess the method of teaching back then was if they won't learn it nicely, beat it into them. We've come a long way.
Your Podengos are very pretty.
