The sweetest dog named Milkshake has become quite the star on social media as he’s one of the less-than-100 pink pugs in the whole world.
This 17-month-old dog was born with the cutest squishy face and baby blue eyes a unique blush pink fur and a skin which definitely makes him stand out.
This unusual color is a result of pigmentation from an albino pug in his lineage.
When the 33-year-old Maria saw this pink puppy among its brothers and sisters, she knew she had to take him.
Maria & Milkshake, the Sweetest Duo
Maria lives in London and she brought Milkshake home when he was only 10 weeks old.
Since then, Milkshake has gained amazing Instagram popularity and currently has more than 55,000 followers.
Maria explains that she never heard of pink pugs before. When she saw Milkshake in the breeder she visited, her first thought was ‘how cute he is’ and she knew she had to take him.
These dogs are very rare and there are no more than 100 in the world. But, Milkshake isn’t albino- he just has this colouring and no hearing or sight problems.
He’s perfectly happy and healthy!
Happy, Healthy & Friendly Dog
Maria describes Milkshake as happy, lucky, friendly, and quirky dog, but also very spoiled! She takes him to her work meetings and often to the dog spa where they pamper him with pedicures.
She often dresses him up in interesting outfits for photo shoots. Milkshake isn’t just popular on social media- he also participates in dog shows and works with a trainer to feature in adverts and films.
Maria loves receiving messages from people on social media saying how Milkshake brightened their days and this motivates her to share more of what’s going on in their lives.
