A boxer in Alhambra, California has given birth to a green puppy!
A dye job was suspected at first, but some experts say it’s actually natural and can occur when various fluids mix during the birthing process. It should only last a few weeks and the puppy’s coat should become a more natural tan or white.
The puppy has been named Wasabi.
[The video says it's a boxer but I've also read elsewhere it's a golden. I also can't find out for sure where the dog is from - some sites say California, others say New Orleans!]
What the heck. That’s wacky. I hope they didn’t dye a poor puppy. Hopefully he’s just naturally green, although, that’s odd too.
I really hope they didn’t dye it either. Some vets are saying it does happen naturally once in a while, so there’s hope!
Judging by the markings of the other pups, I’d say it’s definitely a boxer. Either way, that’s crazy!
I do hope the color goes away soon. That’s just icky.
i’ve seen this, that little dog is a boxer (looks like one my neighbor just hand). a little cutey!!
