So why then have the police been cracking down on this district over the past few weeks ?

One of the good things about Japan is that the cops do not 'just shoot' people.

There's no such thing as a kawaikunai dog. It's an oxymoron.

There are lots of poodles around where I live, but we never get crowds of folk squatting taking photos. Maybe it's something in the mindset of folk who frequent Ginza?

Or maybe the pooch is giving a speech and…
