I don't know if you ever saw video of him in action, but he was amazing! In the thick of protests/riots, smoke or tear gas all around him, he always seemed to be having fun. He always sided with the protestors, never the police. When I first saw him, I assumed he was a protestor's dog, but no, he was a street dog (kept fed by the community). He just knew who he was rooting for.
RIP, puppy!
