Grown Men Are Dressing Up And Living As Dogs IN REAL LIFE

In case you weren’t positive that society is going down the tubes, there’s this.

There’s a movement which involves thousands of people dressing up dogs and living a double life. As a human and a dog. The bizarre lifestyle has been detailed in the show Secret Life of the Human Pups. According to the participants, it’s not sexual in nature at all. It’s about “escapism.”

The programme also features the sad story of Tom, 32, a theatre technician from Tring, Hertforshire, who split up with his fiancee Rachel because of his yearning to dress up as a Dalmatian.

 

He says: ‘You disappear and start chasing puppy toys. You go so deep into the head space, you crave it and want it. It’s just magic.’

This isn’t just a “for fun” thing. It’s a lifestyle. A lifestyle Rachel couldn’t take seriously. She couldn’t deal with her boyfriend’s alter ego. Spot was a pain in the a**, so she left him.

“I didn’t understand it. I didn’t want to understand it,” Rachel said.

Her ex has spent over $5,800 perfecting his alter ego.

“It is quite awkward to put on, you need a lot of talc,” Tom said of his rubber suit, equipped with breathing tubes and all.

What’s more, Tom sleeps in a crate with pee pads. In case he has to go. He’s an indoor dog, after all.

On his Twitter account Spot says he is owned for by Colin, whose own Twitter profile describes him as being into ‘Lycra, Gunge, Pup Play, BDSM.’

 

Tom tells the programme: ‘Rachel thought I was becoming gay.’

 

He later admits: ‘A tiny bit of me regrets being a puppy because I lost what I had.’

YA THINK?

People are dressing up as dogs, sleeping in crates and losing their girlfriends over it. All for “escapism.”

I just didn’t want to know this alone. Proceed with your day.
