Golden Retriever Gives Birth To Green Puppy

POSTED: 6:33 am MST November 10, 2005

ALHAMBRA, Calif -- The littermates of a Northern California puppy may be green with envy.

That\'s because a golden retriever born last week is green. The little green fella is one of a litter of four. But his littermates are the usual blond color.

The owner, a dog breeder, says he\'s mystified about the green color.

Veterinarians said that it\'s possible for a newborn pup\'s fur to be green because the placenta, which is green, sometimes rubs off during birth. Whatever the cause, the little green guy now has name -- Wasabi. That\'s the spicy green mustard put on sushi.

His color definitely sets him apart.
