Say hello to Kiwi!
kiwibugthepugKiwi is a 5 month old black pug whose popularity on Instagram is quickly growing.
Kiwi is such a cutie pie it's not hard for see why!
kiwibugthepugWe are always excited about up and coming puppers and doggos and Kiwi totally caught our attention. So, we reached out to learn more about the pug pup!
kiwibugthepugKiwi was only 3 weeks old when her forever family found out about her and knew she was the right pup for their family:
Saw she was looking for her forever home online and was being fostered in MA (she was born in NH), we drove to her from Vermont!
kiwibugthepugKiwi's family got weekly updated about her growth until she was ready to leave her parents, siblings, and foster family to be in her forever home.
While the time passed, her family got ready for her arrival by ordering a kiwi for her collar and a custom kiwi decorated blanket for her to snuggle on her way home.

Now at 5 months old, Kiwi is totally living the good life in Vermont with her family.
She loves to try to jump in the shower with you and give cute faces right before lunging at you with her teeth ready to chomp!
kiwibugthepugBy the time Kiwi is done growing (sometime between 12 and 18 months for pugs,) she will likely weigh between 14 and 18 pounds.

Because the pug lineage stretches so far back, their early history is a little murky. Most believe that the breed originated in China and existed before 400 BCE and were called (or at least closely related to a breed called) “lo-sze.” Buddhist monks kept the dogs as pets in Tibetan monasteries.

Historically speaking, pugs were treated like royalty.
In modern times, that's still pretty true.
According to Mental Floss, a group of pugs is referred to as a grumble because:
In Holland, the pug is called a mopshond, which comes from the Dutch for “to grumble.”

When Kiwi came home for the first time, she ran straight into the dishwasher face first! Good thing her face is already flat!Pugs are a brachycephalic breed, a term that refers to dogs with smooshed in noses.
