A Cuban dog named Niko has become a TikTok sensation after starring in a hilarious video where he barks and growls fiercely at the sight of Miguel Díaz-Canel on television.
The video was shared by his owner, content creator Yanepsy Ávila López, who is known on social media as @bebé_tubo_84. Her followers were quick to dub the dog the "anti-communist dog" after witnessing his fiery reaction.
With thousands of views already, the video showcases Niko's obvious irritation during the Cuban leader’s speech, as he focuses intensely on the TV and barks loudly every time Díaz-Canel's voice is heard.
"He just can't stand seeing him," Yanepsy remarked with a laugh.
Viewers have applauded the dog's spontaneous response, interpreting it as a reflection of the widespread dissatisfaction on the island.
"Even the dogs are fed up with communism," one user commented. The clip continues to circulate among Cubans both on the island and abroad.
