Secret Service Dog Hurricane’s Handler Reveals Ceremony Honoring K9 Before He Passed

Hurricane — the Secret Service dog that took down an intruder outside the White House in 2014 — may be gone … but, the Service honored his heroism one more time before he passed.

Marshall Mirarchi — Hurricane’s handler and close pal — stopped by “TMZ Live” to talk about the heroic Belgian Malinois … and, he got teary-eyed early remembering the dog he had for most of his adult life.

Marshall then lays out Hurricane’s last day … saying he took him back to Washington, D.C. so he could see his old workspace — the White House — one more time.

Marshall says Mirarchi got to see the members of his old team once more … all of whom Marshall says were as attached to Hurricane as he was.

Mirarchi says the old team surprised him and Hurricane at the airport … and, when they went to the White House, the Secret Service presented the man and his dog with a plaque in honor of Hurricane’s years of service.

ICYMI … Hurricane stopped an intruder on the White House lawn in 2014 — sustaining injuries while fighting off a man named Dominic Adesanya. President Barack Obama and his family were inside at the time.

Hurricane suffered injuries in the attack that led to his retirement in 2016 … though in his retirement he helped train other service animals.

Marshall’s not letting Hurricane’s memory fade, BTW … he’s started a charity effort to subsidize veterinary care for retired police and military dogs — it’s called Hurricane’s Heroes, and he talks about it in depth during our conversation.

Hurricane was 15.
