The incident occurred at Tompkins Square Dog Run in New York, a square where people can take their dogs.

The video, which has over 6 million views, shows owners attempting to keep their dogs at bay while a rat runs around in the background.

The presence of rodent, which continues to dart around the ground, appears to be agitating the dogs.

At one point, one of the dogs manages to catch the rat in its jaws and shake it before dropping it again.

While dogs have always caught the hearts of internet users, one man in Japan went a step further by spending more than 12 lakhs to transform himself into a collie.

Zeppet, a professional agency, assisted in his transformation into a collie dog breed.

Toko even has his own YouTube channel, where he asks viewers to “requests to videos you want to see.”

Toko has even addressed the media. When asked why he chose a collie, he replied –

“I made it a collie because it looks real when I put it on my taste and costume. My favourite 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 favourite breed of dog.”
