Hurricane, WH’s Most-Decorated K-9, Dead at 15

Hurricane, the Secret Service K-9 praised for protecting former President Barack Obama and his family from a man who hopped the White House fence back in 2014, has died at the age of 15.

The all-black Belgian Malinois was the most-decorated White House K-9 in history, receiving multiple honors for his service over the years, reports The Washington Post Thursday. 

Hurricane became famous after the incident at the White House, when he spotted Dominic Adesanya, 23, climbing over the fence and lept into action. He bit into the man’s arm and held on, even while the suspect kicked and punched at him, as well as slamming him into the North Lawn.
