Japanese man who spent Rs 12 lakh to 'become a dog' fails agility test a year after makeover
Chandigarh, December 5
This Japanese man always wanted to live the life of a dog, so Toco went all the way to transform himself into a “collie”, a breed of dog, which was made possible by a professional agency called Zeppet.
The entire costume and transformation cost him over Rs 12 lakh (2 million yen) and 40 days for the dog’s makeover. The news dates back to May 2022.
Recently, in the series of pictures shared on Instagram, Toco shared pictures of him in the collie costume and miserably failing the test dropping on the ground along with a pole and bumping on the hurdle pole. He wrote in the caption of the post, “When you become a dog, you want to try agility, don’t you?”

One of the users said, “Wow you are brave! That must have been so difficult! Honestly, your little crash land photos are so adorable!”
Another wrote: “I think he might be a Therian-a strange one, but a Therian none the less.” “Therians need to step their game up; he’s committed to that identity,” was another comment. Therian in the Urban Dictionary defines as “someone who identifies as a non-human earthen animal either spiritually or psychologically.”
Another Insta user commented, “He tried his best, that’s what matters.”
