Who was the K-9 Hero?

While Americans yearn to talk to the SEAL team that terminated Bin Laden in his alcove, what I want to know is the identity of the bomb-sniffing K-9 that accompanied them on their dangerous mission. What’s the name of the dog? It’s breed? Will he too receive a nation’s thanks?

I truly hope so.

* Update 5/7/2011: The President met with the SEAL team and the K-9, according to CNN. Cool!
