Pres. Biden’s dogs removed from White House due to “biting incident”

WASHINGTON DC (77WABC) – President Joe Biden’s two German Shepherds, Champ and Major, were taken home to Delaware last week following aggressive behavior that involved the younger dog, CNN reported on Monday.

According to several reports, the dogs were removed from the White House after a “biting incident” with Major and a security member. The security member’s injuries and condition are not clear at this time.

It remains unclear if the dogs will remain at the Biden home in Delaware indefinitely or if they will return to Washington, D.C.

During Tuesday morning’s edition of MSNBC’s Morning Joe, co-host Mika Brzezinski concluded an interview with Psaki by asking about the incident, and while Psaki didn’t offer any new details, she offered unwavering support for the rambunctious rescue pooches.

“Before you go, I’m curious because I’m a huge fan of rescue dogs. Is Major still there? There’s a report that he left and did he bite somebody? Does Major bite?”

“I don’t have any specifics, I don’t have any updates for you, Mika, on reports about an incident,” Psaki said, “but what I can tell you as a dog lover, I know you are, is that Major and Champ are part of the Biden’s family, they’re members of the family.”

She added that the dogs “often go to Delaware when the first lady’s traveling, and they’re adjusting to their new home,” and said that Major and Champ are “beloved members of the family, and of course of the White House family, too.”
