NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: ‘Fox News’ host Katie Pavlich recently revealed in a heartfelt Instagram post that her dog Gadsden was named after the Gadsden flag used in the American Revolution.  

The 35-year-old journalist is a true pet lover and always keeps sharing majestic snaps of Gadsden from time to time.

Pavlich, who also appears as a co-host on ‘The Five’, called out all the people in her post who raise objections to “wearing the Gadsden flag” and stated they should be “ashamed” for not accepting a pivotal moment of American history amid news that a 12-year-old Colorado boy was removed from class for sporting the flag on his backpack.

The Fox News host is conservative in her political commentary and mostly bats for the preservation of traditional values.

In her latest post on Instagram, Pavlich addressed the issue of people not accepting and respecting the Gadsden Flag which was used as a symbol during the American Revolution.

Pavlich’s dog can be seen wearing the flag while out on a walk. The flag has a yellow field depicting a timber rattlesnake, coiled and ready to strike. Beneath the rattlesnake, the words “Don’t Tread on Me” are written in bold.

The Fox News anchor revealed the reason why her dog was named Gadsden in her posts and wrote, “Gadsden was named after the Gadsden flag used in the American Revolution, where my family fought to start a new and free country.”

Later addressing the true issue of people not accepting the Gadsden flag, Pavlich added, “People trying to stop children from proudly wearing it should be ashamed of themselves.” She further said, “Also the music on this isn’t working boo. It was Yankee Doodle.”
