US President Joe Biden’s dog, Commander, has left the White House after a series of incidents involving staff and secret agents being bitten. The information was released on Wednesday (4) by First Lady Jill Biden’s spokeswoman.
According to the spokeswoman, the first lady and the president are concerned about the safety of staff working in the White House.
“They appreciate the patience and support of the Secret Service and everyone involved as they continue to work toward solutions,” the statement said.
The first lady’s representative did not provide any information about where Commander was taken. The dog is a twoyearold German Shepherd. He was last seen at the White House on Saturday (2).
The American press reported several episodes in which Biden’s dog bit a White House staffer. The last time was on September 25, when a Secret Service agent was attacked.
“The White House can be a stressful place for pets,” the first lady’s spokeswoman said. She added that Jill and Joe Biden are working to help commanders deal with the often unpredictable nature of the White House.
The Commander arrived at the White House in 2021 and was a gift from President Biden’s brother. Remember below when it was presented.
