Toko metamorphosed into a collie with the help of bespoke costume makers.<\/p>\n
He received his dog costume last month and has been sharing videos of himself performing tricks such as fetch and playing ping pong with his paw.<\/p>\n
His videos also show him\u00a0rolling over on command like a dog.<\/p>\n
In one of his first clips,\u00a0he explains via a clipboard: “I became a rough collie because I wanted to be an animal. From now on I’m thinking of uploading videos at my own pace.<\/p>\n
According to Japanese media, Toko ordered the “quadsuit”\u00a0for \u00a312,500 (2 million Yen) from\u00a0Zeppet which makes sculptures for movies, TV shows.<\/p>\n
