He is four-legged, brownish in colour and he is hanging around Syntagma Square. Loukanikos, which means sausage in Greek, does not miss a single protest march in Athens. He is always on the front lines, even during the most violent clashes between police and rebellious. He is otherwise very peaceful and obedient dog that does not stop barking against the security forces when they put their masks and spray tear gas against protesters.
