NEW ORLEANS -- A green puppy was born last week in New Orleans.

“It’s surprising, alarming to see,” Louisiana SPCA CEO Anna Zorrilla said. “Sometimes, when a puppy is born, the amniotic fluid mixes with the placenta and dyes the coat of the puppy and it almost always happens to very light colored puppies.”

Zorrilla said the puppy will not be green forever, and will likely turn white or a light tan color in the next few weeks.

She also said the health of the puppy won’t be affected.

LOL @ The Hulk comment.

But Awww the puppy's adorable!

OMG this happened to me once , too! I couldn't go anywhere for like two weeks.

That's quite interesting. How adorable!

I think I'd name him Kermit.

Or Shrek.

I like Spinach the best, though.

Flubber! Aww, I wish I had a green puppy... and it would stay green!

Shrek might be a good name, but Kermit might be another good name.

Well the nose is really red.

I dub him Sprout.

He is a cutie - but I bet his siblings are cute too.

If it was a chihuahua, I'd call it, 'guacamole!'
