After a "biting incident" with a bodyguard, Joe Biden's German Shepherds had to leave the White House.
Washington - The US media were happy: finally dogs in the White House again.
But the joy only lasted for a short time.
After a little over a month, President Joe Biden's two German Shepherds had to move again.
The 13-year-old champ and the three-year-old major caused too many problems, US media reported on Monday.
Above all, the younger of the two sheepdogs is said to have been aggressive towards the employees and the security staff.
He is said to have barked at them, jumped at them and sometimes attacked them.
There is even said to have been a "biting incident" with one of the bodyguards.
It is unclear whether he was injured in the process.
First Lady tried to settle in - dog Mayor was adopted from the shelter in 2018
The older of the two German Shepherds has been with the Bidens since 2008.
Major, on the other hand, was taken out of the shelter by the President and First Lady in 2018.
According to Biden's team, he was the first shelter dog in the White House.
Jill Biden had recently said in an interview that she still has to get the dogs used to their new home.
"They have to take the elevator, they are not used to that, and they go to the south lawn, where they are watched by a lot of people," she told NBC.
"I have resolved with a certain persistence to make sure that everyone arrives safely in their new home and that the excitement subsides," said the first lady.
First Dogs must leave the White House - return to Wilmington, Delaware
But their efforts did not seem to pay off in the end.
US media reports that the two dogs have been living in Biden's house in Wilmington, Delaware since last week.
There should have been too many problems with you.
Dogs in the White House have a long history.
There had been no dogs in the White House since Barack Obama's presidency.
Biden's predecessor, Donald Trump, was the first US president in over a century to not own a dog.
