Puppeteer Expertly Mimics Dog Movements In Viral Video

March 18, 2024

In the world of artistry and puppetry, there are moments that blur the lines between fantasy and reality, leaving us in awe of the creative genius behind the craft. Such was the case in a recent encounter between a curious canine and an astonishingly lifelike dog puppet.

Captured in a video that has since gone viral, this canine meeting unfolded as the dog encountered a puppeteer's creation— a puppet so realistic that it could easily be mistaken for a living, breathing canine companion.

@aonsolniki Burek - The Dog Marionette. Fully improvised show with unique type of marionette. Puppet has a smell from other dogs, what with a propper wind can bring a dog to Burek in seconds what randomly starts interaction. Body language allowed by handmade construction is the key here. Burek is not barking, but people around my shows are 😅 This puppet is working as well as a therapy dog for people who are affraid of dogs 💪 those are very random moments during a show on a street, but not that impossible to handle with this puppet. This is 7th generation of Burek, first has been made in 2009.
