A Japanese Man Became A Dog—Now, He’s Joining A Pack

Did you know that a human being is actually living part time as a dog?

Meet Toco, a mysterious Japanese man who commissioned local sculpture company, Zeppet, to make him a collie dog suit in 2022. The realistic looking costume took 40 days to make and cost roughly two million yen ($15,700 USD).

He later opened his own YouTube channel where he shows all the dog-related situations he gets himself into.

In fact, it was on one of these walks where Toco found new packmates. While being interviewed by a German TV station, he excitedly met real canines who were out with their owners.

One white dog approached him first but backed away in fright.

This did not deter the collie from making new friends. Fortunately, three dogs soon encircled him with curiosity.

They stayed nearby for several minutes, even allowing their owners to carry them and scoot closer for a picture.
