WASHINGTON (AP) — Every dog has his day, just not at the White House.
President Donald Trump tweets that the military working dog injured in the raid last weekend that killed the Islamic State leader will leave the Middle East for the White House sometime next week.
And the president appears to have declassified the dog’s name: Conan. That had remained a military secret because of the classified nature of the mission in which Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi died.
**SNIP**
Conan was hurt after being exposed to live electrical cables but has returned to active duty, the Pentagon said Wednesday.
Gen. Frank McKenzie, who leads U.S. Central Command, told reporters the dog was injured when it came in contact with the cables as it pursued al-Baghdadi in a tunnel underneath a compound in northwestern Syria.
McKenzie said the dog has worked with special operations forces for four years and taken part in about 50 missions. He said such working dogs are “critical members of our forces.”

Yay!
Well obviously the terrorists are NOT using building electrical code specs in their tunnels.
Wonderful . I’m a Mal owner and me and my Mal are STOKED for Conan. Awesome sauce
Feed him on best cut steaks for a month
God bless dog!
Excellent!!
Better heads exploding, than the libs getting in the dogs face.
LMAO - I've never had so much fun watching President in action and actually trolling the left!
For their own undeserved protection, it’s probably best to keep Conan away from the Capitol Complex because a military dog who’s trained to detect, pursue and viciously incapacitate America’s deadliest enemies would have a field day among House Democrat Stalinist’s.
Not just the Dems...
LOL.. Is that ever the truth!
Feed fido a Trump Steak on live TV!
WAPO: ** The dog’s name is classified, Trump and the Pentagon said, though Newsweek reported its name is Conan (after the comedian, not the barbarian).**
Good Lord! Another reason to hate the reporting of the WACOMPOST.
Conan if you see Hillary do not try to take her down by the canckles! No dogs’ mouth can open that wide! Have a great time at the White House too!
Have to be careful. If the left find out the dog’s name they’ll doxx him and harass his bitch and sire.
I saw this youtube last year, amazing what these dogs can do, I never knew they could climb trees.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWhL1ryluJg
LMAO!
I suspect if a lib got in Conan’s face, Conan would bite the lib. Lol.
