Zastrow got into the furry community online as a child and now has found a passion for dancing in his fursuit. “Dancing in a suit has really helped me. I have really bad anxiety, social anxiety. This gives me a sense of character where I don’t have to be my human self. I get to run around as a dog all day.”
