President Trump wants the heroic dog who cornered the world’s most wanted terrorist to visit the White House.
Trump released on Monday night a photo of the dog, whose name has not been declassified. The canine is credited with chasing Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al Baghdadi through an underground tunnel in Syria before the terrorist detonated a suicide vest, killing himself and three of his children.
An invite to the White House has not yet been extended to the Belgian Malinois, but Trump wants to meet the canine, a senior administration official told ABC News.
Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said Monday the dog was "slightly wounded” but had “returned to duty.”
Trump credited the dog in his remarks Sunday with preventing any injuries to U.S. forces.
“Our dog was hurt,” Trump said while announcing Baghdadi’s death. “Actually, the K-9 was hurt, went into the tunnel. But we lost nobody.”
“It's incredible that nobody was killed or hurt. We had nobody even hurt. And that's why the dog was so great,” he said.
Trump described the animal as “a beautiful dog, a talented dog.”
The White House did not immediately respond to the Washington Examiner’s request for comment.
I know you cant give a medal to a dog but I did see there is some award that can be given.
I actually think this is a good move (also sincere) by POTUS. There are some dog-loving liberals out there, who might just soften on him, if he’s very good to the dog.
That dog is worth more than a million bearded savages.
The K-9 Medal of Courage, the highest award military working dogs can get, will be given to four retired US military working dogs this month.
This is a medal military dogs can receive...
I was thinking about a jihadi shaped Kong toy in the dogs honor.
I hope he goes to the White House, that hero pup is a true HERO god bless our 4 legged friends!!
The dogs entire social history will now be savaged.
Hopefully he never humped another dog without its written consent.
"Good Boy!!!!"
I kind of expected him to do this.
He and his people have a good sense for what will sell well with the public
AND it’s the right thing to do
Will also kinda rub it in Obamas face for hosting Bergdalls muzzie loving parents in the Rose Garden
I’d pass. Bel Mal are not warm and cuddly doggies, as a rule, and won’t understand the rank of CinC or what all the fuss is about.
Show us the medal!
and a belly rub!
There has to be more for this dog. Something special. What can you give a dog that the dog can recognize as a BIG reward. I know the dog wont know what it was for, but we will.
The Mals are warrior canines.
Love them, not a pet breed at all.
May he live to bite again.
The dogs handler is the dogs alpha. CiC is the handler’s alpha. The dog will understand.

I hope the medal comes with a side of Porterhouse.
They are very smart and will know that PDJT is a good man. She will show proper respect because her handlers are showing respect.
She. The dog is a female.
