A heroic dog that was injured during the U.S. military operation that killed Islamic State (ISIS) leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi has already returned to duty, the U.S. government said Monday.
The dog is fine and has returned to duty, an unnamed U.S. official told Reuters White House correspondent Steve Holland.
President Donald Trump lauded the canine at Sundays press conference in which he offered vivid details of how the elite U.S. Army special operators took down one of the worlds most wanted terrorists.
Our K-9, as they call it, a beautiful dog, a talented dog, was injured and brought back, the president said in his national address from the White House.
Speaking to the Washington Examiner, one Delta Force soldier said of the dogs wounds: The injury to the dog is an injury to one of us. These dogs are a special breed of courageous.
Neither President Trump nor the Department of Defense (D0D) has released additional details regarding the canine soldier, but retired Marine Ron Aiello told the New York Times that the dog was either a Belgian Malinois or German Shepherd.
If theyre leading the patrol, they want a dog that is not only an explosive detection dog but on command can be aggressive, said Aiello. On a mission like this you want a dog that can be aggressive when necessary.

If the dog in the raid was wearing a camera, I’d pay money to see al-Dead-dadi whimpering and screaming.
Good for you.
LOL!!
“...Trump steaks ...”
Catsup/ketchup is optional.
“If this dog does not get awarded with 2 Trump steaks a week for life I am going to be ticked. ;-”
Would love to see Trump award the dog and its handler at the White House and the dog eat the steak on live TV.
Good luck if you’re being chased a Belgian Malinois...

‘That is one brave dog though I fear the gorilla would kill him or her.’
a gorilla could easily kill a dog, but in reality they are rather passive, and would more likely retreat than engage...but a chimpanzee, different story...
Way to go, Buster.
Dogs are better people than most people.
Hey, where’s the “like” button?

BFLR?
Can’t find it.
In many important ways...and, Dog spelled backward IS GOD.
Maxamilla, Great name for a Rottie!
The wife and I have provided a home for Rotties for 42-years...absolutely wonderful pals.
Fwiw, I “inherited” my much loved “Max” from a dear friend (& WWII hero) at age 8 years. = She lived to almost 14YO & was “my constant companion” until she passed away.
YEP, Rotties are GREAT canines for any number of purposes. = My big girl weighed 88#, at age 10YO.

Y'know, the use of a dog was probably enough to send that superstitious nitwit mass-murderer into his final downward spiral of irrational behavior. Thanks LesbianThespianGymnasticMidget.
