US President Joe Biden’s Major dog has bitten a man in the White House for the second time.
According to a CNN report, the incident allegedly took place on Monday afternoon when the ‘Major’ was on the South Lawn of the White House where he cut off a National Park Services employee.
According to the American Broadcasting Network, a staff member was busy at work at the time of the incident and had to quit his job after being bitten by a dog and was examined by the White House Medical Unit first Lady Jill Biden’s press secretary Michael Larusa confirmed the incident to cnn
Yes, the Major attacked a man during the walk, Larosa said in a request for comment. As a precaution, the man was examined by the White House Medical Unit, but he was not injured and returned to work. He added that a three-year-old German Shepherd was still trying to adapt to his new environment at the White House.
It was not immediately clear when the incident took place, but video footage and photos showed an auxiliary leashing dog on the South Lawn around 5 p.m. Monday the Independent has also contacted the White House for comment
The Biden family adopted the ‘Major’ in 2018, while the family already has another 12-year-old German Shepherd named Champ. The major had earlier stabbed another man in the White House on March 8. The dog seriously injured a Secret Service agent who was being treated at the White House Medical Unit.
Talking about the past incident, White House Press Secretary Jane Sackie called it a minor injury. According to him, the dog had encountered a person with whom he was not acquainted
But soon after, both Champ and Major were sent back to the Biden family’s Delaware home with Jill Biden. Saki said the dogs were scheduled to visit but had been trained before the major returned to the White House.
President Biden told ABC News earlier this month that Major was a rescue pup. The Major (before) had not bitten anyone. Our trainers are now training the dog at home in Delaware.
The president made it clear that the dog was not deported to Delaware because of the incident. He was already going home. I didn’t ban it.
Jill was on a four-day vacation and I was about to leave, so we took her with us (to Delaware). The president added: He is a very cute dog. 85% of the people there love it. He licks them and shakes his tail
