He’s actually quite lovely, once you get to know him.

But when actor and director SA Wardega dresses Chica the dog in a spider costume, adds a little atmosphere, and then lets him loose people run screaming for their lives.

Note: No doges were harmed in the making of this video. Though some hoomans may have gotten a few early grey hairs.
