Very interested in learning about this scenarios that are usually not discussed as much as what you typically read from anti communists in the media.

During the Spanish civil war, many children from the Republican-controlled territories were evacuated into the USSR. Some of them chose to stay, having lost their families to war and feeling so welcome in their new home.
As a silly note, some brought with them dogs of the Basque shepherd breed. I learned that after a Russian lady saw my dog and told me there are lots like those now in former USSR countries.
TIL those little orange strays aren't just mutts, but an actual breed
You can tell a dog is a Basque shepherd by touching the back of its head; their skull is noticeably thicker there, which is unique to this breed. Also some of them are woolly and really fluffy!
Thanks!
