Kanellos!

Such a nice doggy.
As usual, click for the full size version.

Getting a little bit political here, but I have been quite amused by the emergence of Κανέλλος the "Riot Dog", a stray dog named "Cinnamon" that always seemed to be at the front lines of civil unrest in Greece. He's recently reappeared during fresh strikes / riots, and I thought I would make a play on his odd mixture of cuteness and utter ferocity towards authority.


A true icon for our times, I suppose...


(CORRECTION: I seem to have gotten the Greek onomatopoeia's spelling wrong for a barking dog, it should read "γαβ, γαβ". It's late in the night at the moment, so I'll correct it later...)
