Fox News host Sean Hannity is suggesting President Joe Biden and his staff may have needed to consider putting his dog down due to its aggressive behavior at the White House.
South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem (R) appeared on Hannity’s show Wednesday night to discuss her controversial revelation she killed an aggressive dog after it attacked a neighbor’s chickens and her.
Noem initially attacked the media for its coverage of the story, saying, “Well, Sean, you know how the fake news works. They leave out some or most of the facts of a story, they put the worst spin on it, and that’s what’s happened in this case. I hope people really do buy this book and they find out the truth of this story because the truth of this story is that this was a working dog and it was not a puppy. It was a dog that was extremely dangerous.”
“It had come to us from a family who found her way too aggressive. We were her second chance and the day she was put down was the day that she massacred livestock that were part of our neighbors, she attacked me, and it was a hard decision,” she added.

The Fox host noted the contrast between how the governor said she handled an aggressive dog and Biden’s German Shepherd, Commander, who was kicked out of the White House after at least 24 biting incidents.
“You know, I was shocked when we learned that Joe Biden, and he has a German Shepherd, that when all is said and done, 24 Secret Service agents were bitten by a German Shepherd, by a big dog,” Hannity said.
He continued, “Initially, we heard, okay, maybe one Secret Service agent, maybe three, and then at one point we read 24? In that particular case, if somebody is biting people in large numbers like that. “
“It’s a sad thing to do but at some point doesn’t it become the responsible thing for the safety of others that you don’t allow a dog at least around anybody else? At the very least?” Hannity asked.
