I wonder if they’re a bonded pair. My younger dog would simply not know what to do without his big sister. She decides when they go out and when they come in. Reminds me of a picture my sister in law took of my niece in the corner and her baby brother right next to her because he did everything she did!

Too bad you didn't care this much about the pussy grabbing dog that let 500,000 people die before he left the White House.

That is too bad. A lot of changes and different people for those dogs. It sounds like they made a good decision, but it's unfortunate.

That's very sad, but it's the right call if Major has bitten someone. I hope they can come back sometime if Major's disposition and training allow. But it must be a big change for some adopted dogs to go from the quiet familiar to suddenly having strangers around at all hours in a new place.

I have had dogs my entire life and I've trained many dogs. I can't imagine the level of disruption that living in the White House would bring to their lives. Animals are sensitive to new people and experiences and you can't reason with them either. Shelter animals, which I have, have histories which make them even more sensitive. It would be one thing if the Bidens got a puppy and the puppy was raised there. I feel nothing but empathy for the Bidens and the dogs for having to separate a bit.

It doesn't sound like anyone is being ripped away from the only family they've known. It sounded to me like they need to go back to the quiet environment they are familiar with for a while. President Biden has lived in numerous places over the years, and his dog has been very adaptable. Major isn't a bad dog - he was probably put into a stressful situation and as a shelter dog, reacted badly. He needs more training and less stress. Which is exactly what he'll get.

I just saw that they are coming back, probably because Dr. Biden, who is traveling, will also be returning. I suspect that more training is in store for Major.

link. Major has been a bad, bad boy and poor Champ is being uprooted form the only family he’s known because of it. Could you be any more dramatic? It said, right there in the article, that they were going to the Biden family home. Perhaps, just maybe, this is in the best interests of the dogs?

Show me in the quoted text where I say anything about caring about people. Why do you feel the need to engage with me after your stupid apology thread?

You people are unbelievable! I didn’t criticize, I wasn’t being dramatic nor was I trying to rattle the peas. You all need to get a grip or use the ignore button. I feel bad for the dogs being separated from their family. Just because they’re going back to a more familiar setting doesn’t mean they won’t be affected by not having their owners around too.

Sure you were. This is what I was responding to: "bad, bad boy" "poor Champ is being uprooted form the only family he’s known". Pretty dramatic. Nondramatic would be something like "Major had a biting incident, and the dogs are going to back to stay at the Biden home in Delaware."

The facts are
There was a biting incident with a security staff member.
Both dogs go to Delaware whenever the First Lady is traveling.
The First Lady is currently traveling.
My guess is thst the dogs will return to the WH when the First Lady does and that Major will receive some additional training. Or maybe the security team member will.

I believe that honor goes to KAC who was HORRIFIED at an exposed wire leading to the POTUS podium. That simply would NOT happen in the Trump WH, dontcha know!

Do they have a house/dog sitter that stays with the dogs at the house in Delaware? At least Delaware isn't too far from DC, so hope they can see the dogs often. My current German Shepherd prefers being at home, it would be hard for the dogs to have such a big adjustment. But I hope whatever they figure out works well for Champ and Major and the Bidens! I'm sure they will really miss their sweet dogs.

I can't imagine how stressful the move has been for Major. GSDs are very protective of their owners, and as a recent rescue, any sort of upheaval for Major can be traumatic. The Bidens are good owners and familiar with the breed, so I'm hopeful that he'll receive appropriate training when they return.

You seem to forget all of your other political posts in favor of former or denigrating President Biden. Without those, your post might be believable. In the context of your other posts, nope. I don't think anyone believes that you actually care about the welfare of President Biden's dogs. Not to mention the factual misinformation as many other peas have pointed out.
