See that other article on the NYPost next to this one? A guy turned himself into a border collie? He's a dog now and it only cost $20,000.

Great news source. No problems here. Not click bait garbage at all. Nope, not meant for maximum sharing. Thanks L4sBot for your contribution.

$20,000 to become your fursona would be a fucking steal to most furries, they would sell everything for that.

I'd still object to NYPost being used as source for anything outside shitpost or a degen meme community like NCD.
