Who is Dana Perino’s new dog Percy?

On Monday, November 8, Dana Perino shared a story on Fox News introducing the public to her new dog, Percy.

Percy is a Vizsla puppy who was born in Hillsboro, Ohio on September 22, 2021.

Dana and her husband, Peter McMahon, picked up the little guy over the weekend and brought him home with them.

In an article published to Fox, Dana describes Percy as “remarkably good and smart” and “quite the heart mender”.

Who was Percy named after?

Dana’s husband Peter is originally from the United Kingdom, and worked at a pub in northern England when he was just 18 years old.

During his time there, a World War I veteran named Percy would come in each day and clean off the pool table. He’d stay for a pint, and tell stories of his childhood and the war.

Peter grew to appreciate this man, and so the couple decided to name their third Vizsla after him.

Has Percy been on television?

Since his arrival into the lives of Dana and Peter, Percy has made multiple appearances on Fox News.

On Tuesday, November 9, 2021, Percy appeared as a guest on America’s Newsroom, the news program that Dana co-hosts with Bill Hemmer.

He then was welcomed onto the talk show Fox & Friends on Wednesday morning.

Dana shared multiple photos of the puppy on set to her Instagram story, as well as her Twitter account.

Many users and fans have responded to her tweets with images of their own dogs.

What happened to Dana Perino’s dog Jasper?

On September 4, 2021, Dana Perino announced that her dog, Jasper, had passed away suddenly due to a fast-spreading cancer.

Jasper was also a Vizsla, and was only nine years old at the time of his death.

In an Instagram post, Dana honored Jasper – who was known by many as “America’s Dog”.

She wrote:

“It is with broken hearts that Peter and I have to let you know that Jasper, America’s Dog, died today. A fast spreading cancer caused him to leave us sooner than we’d ever hoped. We got to send him off – talking about all the fishing he can do in Heaven.

“… so many of you have helped us raise Jasper to become the wonderful, hilarious, legend that he was,” she continued.

“Hold on tight to your loved ones – including all of your pets. And love boldly and fully.

“Rest In Peace, Jasper. Rest In Peace.”

Dana and Peter previously owned a Vizsla by the name of Henry.
