Man spends 15K to become a collie

[ Edited ]

A Japanese man has always wanted to be a dog. He says he had dreams about becoming an animal since childhood. He chose to become a collie because of the size similarity with humans. Zeppet is the company that made the man's collie costume. It took 40 days to make it. The man, whose name is Toco, conceals his life as a dog from family, friends and colleagues at his job. He dresses as a human at work. There are videos of him in his costume on YT. He plays fetch, romps about on the lawn and rolls around on a floor. He has a YT channel with 32,000 subscribers. He says that his costume has helped him achieve his dream of becoming an animal.

I really don't care if he is a dog as long as he is harmless. 

He can play all day as far as I'm concerned. At least it sounds like he works.

Yes, he has a job but his colleagues don't know about his collie hobby.  When these articles came out, he wouldn't allow himself to be photographed so they wouldn't find out.

 

You must admit, he's a good-looking collie, if a bit stocky.
