within the city walls at night \u2013 presumably to discourage potential attackers and looters.<\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><i>Some sources say the practice started in the 1600s while others suggest it was sometime in the early 1300s during the Crusades. Regardless, the powers-that-be decided it was a novel way to protect the city at night.<\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><i>Every evening the bell tower of the cathedral would ring at 10 pm as an alarm to warn the residents that 20-some English mastiffs were about to be released from their kennels.<\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><i>These were not warm and fuzzy animals.<\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><i>They had been unfed during the day and so were quite vicious as they roamed the streets at night. In the morning, the animals would be called back to the kennel by the sounding of a horn \u2013 which likely signalled they were about to be fed.<\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><i>Hence the motto of the city became \u201cCave Canem\u201d which translated from Latin to mean \u201cBeware the Dog\u201d.<\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><i>Incredibly, this practice continued until 1772 when the dogs attacked and killed a young navel officer who had been out late. The story is that he had been visiting his fianc\u00e9e and lost track of time.<\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><i>After this incident, the city decided to discontinue the use of guard dogs and each of the dogs was then poisoned \u2026 a rather insulting \u2018reward\u2019 for years of loyal service.<\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><i>What hasn\u2019t changed however is the evening practice of ringing the curfew bells at 10 pm \u2013 although without the risk of canine terror.<\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you to Joanne Sisco for this story https:\/\/mylifelivedfull.wordpress.com\/2019\/05\/20\/dogs-of-saint-malo\/.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The walled city of St Malo on the English Channel coast of Brittany had a long history of piracy, earning much wealth [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":20,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-28","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorised"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
