Joe Biden's dogs have only recently returned to the White House.
Now there has been another "biting incident" in which a White House employee was attacked.
Washington - The Shepherd Dogs Champ and Major moved into the White House with the Bidens.
While Champ has not caused any problems so far, Major is said to have bitten an employee again.
After the first "biting incident" in early March, the "First Dogs" lived temporarily in Biden's house in Wilmington, Delaware.
The dogs only returned to the White House a few days ago.
According to information from
CNN
, Major has now bitten another employee.
Joe Biden's dog Major has bitten again - employee has not suffered any injuries
In the new "biting incident" in the White House on Monday afternoon, a National Park Service employee was attacked.
The employee received medical care after the bite from Major, reports
CNN
.
The First Lady's press spokesman, Michael LaRosa, said on Tuesday (local time): "Major is currently getting used to his new surroundings and he snapped at someone while walking." However, the employee did not suffer any injuries - he was examined, "To be sure".
Major is a three-year-old German Shepherd who was adopted by the Bidens in 2018.
He has received training for the past two weeks, according to the White House, after biting an employee earlier this month.
At the time, White House press secretary Jen Psaki described the injury as "minor" and attributed Major's behavior to the fact that he was still getting used to his new surroundings.
At around 5 p.m. Monday night, Major was spotted walking with a White House employee.

And (Major) moves to protect, ”Biden said.
“But he's a lovely dog.
85 percent of the people there love him.
All he does is lick her and wag his tail.
But I understand that some people are understandably afraid of dogs. ”At the beginning of March, Jill Biden had also mentioned that Major and Champ were still getting used to their new homes.
"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.
