Comedian Hannah Berner Apologizes to Beloved Rescue Dog Miss Peaches
Comedian Hannah Berner felt the need to apologize to Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy and his beloved rescue dog, Miss Peaches.
During a July 2024 interview on Portnoy’s podcast, “BFFs,” Berner shared that she is fostering a senior pitbull from South Hamptons Animal Shelter. She then shared that she believed Miss Peaches was also a senior dog. When Portnoy corrected Berner and stated his furry friend is only 4 years old, the former “Summer House” star immediately apologized.
“I feel so embarrassed. Peaches if you are listening, you are stunning,” said Berner.
We doubt Miss Peaches minds Berner’s mistake! After all, the very good girl is busy being a social media star and a philanthropist.
This past April, Portnoy and Miss Peaches were honored at the LifeLine Animal Project’s second annual, Good Human Gala, for raising $600,000 for pups in need. Portnoy and his gorgeous pit bull appeared on stage at the gala. During his speech, the businessman explained that he adopted his lovely lady in early 2024 with the help of the LifeLine Animal Project. He stated that after featuring her on social media, she shot up to stardom and “kind of captivated the world.” He also shared he believed his canine companion has “brought attention to adopting, not shopping.”
Portnoy then noted that the proceeds from Barstool Sports merchandise featuring Miss Peaches’ likeness go straight to several animal rescues, such as Paw Patrol Animal Rescue and Sanctuary, New York Bully Crew, LifeLine Animal Project, True and Faithful, and Muddy Paws Rescue.
“Hopefully Miss Peaches was put on earth to really bring a lot of notice and awareness to this issue. And she was born for it. She’s a natural born superstar,” said Portnoy.
