Who Is the Japanese Man That Transformed into a Border Collie Dog?

The Land of Hentai, sorry, I meant, The Land of Rising Sun, has once again piqued the curiosity of the world with the feats of a Japanese YouTuber. YouTubers are meant to do eccentric tasks by definition, so what’s new about this one?

Well, Japanese YouTuber, Toco, is determined to live like a dog, and he can go to unthinkable lengths to do so. Most people would be satisfied with acting like a cute canine for a day, but not this man!

Toco has embraced the life of a dog with a custom-made costume and slowly adapting the mannerisms of a dog. His journey is uploaded on his YouTube channel, but find out everything about him before you go.

How Did the Japanese YouTuber Become a Dog?

Japanese YouTuber Toco spent two million yen, or approximately $14,000, to buy a life-like collie costume that looks too real to be true. The suit was bought from Zeppet, a studio specializing in custom bodysuits, animatronics, etc, for films. Videos of Toco in the custom-made suit have gone viral.

In June 2022, Toco revealed that he had always had a vague dream of becoming an animal ever since he was a child. Cosplaying as a dog is what fulfilled his dream.

If you head on to Toco’s YouTube channel named ‘I want to be an animal,’ you will find his various adventures as a dog. After a year of posting videos from home, the YouTuber is finally going out into the public.

From taking a walk outside in the realistic dog costume to approaching humans, Toco does it all. The latest video also records some hilarious reactions to the outfit since it is often mistaken for an actual hound.

Different types of queries have arisen over Toco’s lifestyle, the prime question being, what does he eat?

Toco’s dietary choice includes human foods and a variety of dog-friendly treats and meals. In one of the latest videos, Toco requests dog food and even wags his tail in excitement. His exact diet is still a mystery, though.

I’m glad Toco is living out the furry life of his dreams and fetching millions of views while he is at it. He had admitted that many had looked at him weirdly when he first came out with his new venture, and he developed an inferiority complex. However, he is still living an unrestrained tail-wagger life.
