Champ, the Biden family‘s original German Shepherd, is a 13–year–old veteran of the White House. He has been living with the Bidens since 2008, when Biden was Vice President.
The Bidens‘ two German Shepherds are part of a long tradition of presidential pets. Major and Champ join a long line of presidential dogs, from George Washington‘s foxhounds to George W. Bush‘s Scottish terriers.
The Biden family is well aware of the important role that their two German Shepherds will play in the White House. Major and Champ will serve as companions and confidants to the president and his family during this trying time.
As part of the White House tradition, the Biden family has already released a few pictures of their two German Shepherds. It’s clear that Major and Champ are already settling in well to their new home.
The Bidens have made it clear
According to AFP, President Joe Biden’s two pet dogs , Champ, 13, and Major, 3, were taken to the leader’s home in Wilmington, Delaware. American media reported that Major was so aggressive that White House staffers feared. Since moving into the White House in late January, Major has often barked and growled at White House staff and security forces. Major recently bitten a security guard and the owner decided to bring both “first dogs” home to Wilmington last week.
