Afterward, Major and the Bidens’ other German shepherd, Champ, were sent to the family’s home in Wilmington, Delaware a move that Psaki said was pre-planned because first lady, Dr. Jill Biden, was traveling to military bases this week.
“Look, Major was a rescue pup. Major did not bite someone and penetrate the skin,” Biden explained when Stephanopoulos asked if Major was still in the dog house. “I guess what surprised me is the White House itself, living there. Every door you turn to, there’s a guy there in a black jacket.”
Biden added: “You turn a corner, and there’s two people you don’t know at all. And he moves to protect. But he’s a sweet dog. Eighty-five percent of the people there love him. He just all he does is lick them and wag his tail.”
