The one photo I've seen could be a neutered male....it's hard to tell from the picture.

But Trump is known to be an idiot so it wouldn't be a surprise if he got it wrong.

The dog is save from sexual abuse but maybe a little harassment would be in order.

If he is confronted with this very real dog, he will demand that someone make sure he doesn’t have to be close to the dog. He is a big coward. Remember tRump and the bird (Eagle?) where he cowered like the whimp he is? The minute that pooch tries to lick him or give doggie kisses, he’ll show his true feelings about dogs. Yes....I know that dog is highly trained and unlikely to do that. Just sayin’..... tRump is a big wuss.

...One dog was sacrificed for the mission. Chasing a guy with a suicide vest into a dead end tunnel is not a brave act for a dog... He/she was expecting a very nice treat afterwards.

The choices we make as humans.

The dog never knew it was being sacrificed. In this case, I would prefer that they use drones.


As this fight escalates, how long before Americans add weapons to the search dogs? I think drones are the only humane way to do it.

Seems to me that drones would have been used if they were even as good as the dogs. This wasn't a clown car we sent on a picnic, after all; all their lives and the mission depended on being as good as they could.

What matters to me is that saving the children was at the top of the same list killing Baghdadi was on. Even under the trumpsters, America wouldn't accept deliberate murder of children.

If only those highly trained attack dogs had caught up and ripped Baghdadi's arms off before he managed to detonate the vest. We didn't save all the children, but of course that team would have sacrificed all the dogs if it might have saved even one more.

Although I would lean toward male because there is a spot that looks to me like it might be a penis.

since yesterday I heard that the dog was a she
then I saw on twitter that the dog's name was Conan (Conan was even trending)
today I heard that the dog is still working so the information is classified

so many stories

so in other words it was really a female cat named Jimmy
