Kupata has a real weakness for children. That’s why he wants to make sure they get to school safely.

Back when Kupata was a small dog, he unexpectedly showed up in town.

Although he was a stray, Kupata was always fed and cared for by the community.

He took up residence in the stairwells of some nearby apartments. One day, the dog started jumping out of cars to stop them so that the children could cross the street.

Kupata starts barking furiously at the approaching vehicles. He returns and crosses the street with the children after they have stopped.

Because he used to play with the children in the park next to his house, Kupata began to feel protective of them.

Kupata dedicates his life to keeping the children safe in the park.

This is why he frequently barks at intoxicated people who hang out there.

“His three closest friends are Nona, a woman who feeds him, and a daughter and Beka, who also looks after him. Having grown up around children, Kupata likes to play with them. He will often play with children in the park next to his house, according to Kupata’s Instagram.

He loves sausages! So much that he has been given the name sausage.
