Means Furry News

For his costume, the man, Toko, commissioned a Japanese company called Zeppet, which specializes in sculptures and models for movies, commercials and amusement facilities as well as TV costumes and mascots. The costume reportedly took 40 days to create. Toko also went through multiple rounds of revisions, including meetings and fittings for the costume.
In an interview with Mynavi, Toko explained that he chose a border collie costume as the long hair can “mislead the human figure.”
“I made it a collie because it looks real when I put it on. 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,” Toko said. “I met such a condition and made collie, my favorite breed of dog.”

So what is Furrstein? It is a real fur con that takes place in a converted castle. Meaning it went from a castle to a hotel.
So being out in a rural part of that country. Con prices also include cost of rooms.

2950 CZK for the Basic works out to be $128 to the top price of $141 in other words cheap compared to US Cons. If you ever wanted to hang out in a real castle next to Wild North (Scotland) here is your chance.

They tell about…
Russian forces were driven out of the villages of the Nikolaev region near Mykolaiv by the Ukrainian military and left behind many dangerous objects – and a Belgian Shepherd.
Ukrainians view dogs as members of the family and took the abandoned dog in as one of their own. The trained military dog was renamed Max and joined the defenders of Ukraine.
The National Guard of Ukraine posted about their new team member and said, “This is a Belgian shepherd, about three years old and he is in great shape. All the base teams know. So far he understands teams only in the language of the occupiers, but Ukrainian language classes have already begun.”
These Guards and their animal partners save lives from all Russia has left behind in that senseless ware
