When we think that the world cannot get weirder, a bizarre incident has been reported, this time in Japan, where a man paid a hefty amount to look like a dog.

Twitter user @taco_eevee had a lifelong dream of becoming a dog. For this, he paid two million Japanese Yen (Rs 12 lakhs approx) to a professional agency named Zeppet.

The agency is known for producing costumes for TV shows and famous mascots in Japan.

Zeppet also posted pictures of Toko dressed as a dog a wrote,

“At the request of an individual, we made a dog modeling suit. Modeled after a collie dog, it reproduces the appearance of a real dog walking on four legs like a real dog.”

It took 40 days for the agency to make the costume of ‘collie’, a breed of dog. The costume looks so realistic that you will have to look twice to check whether it’s a dog or a man dressed as a dog.

He had also posted several pictures of him dressed as a dog which has set the social media abuzz. He has even uploaded a video of him dressed as a dog on his YouTube channel.

While talking to newsmynavi, Toko said,

“I made it a collie because it looks real when I put it on my taste and costume. My favorite is quadrupedal animals, especially cute ones. Among them, I thought that a big animal close to me would be good, considering that it would be a realistic model, so I decided to make it a dog. Long-haired dogs can mislead the human figure. I met such a condition and made Collie, my favorite breed of dog.”
