Biden's dog shunned from White House for biting Secret Service agents 24 times: report

The POTUS pooch that had to be rehomed from the White House to a relative's reportedly racked up two dozen biting incidents with Secret Service agents.

CNN published a deep dive relying on FOIA requests into the spotty record of Commander Biden, one of the the presidential family dogs that they had welcomed as part of their family in 2021.

Their findings counted 24 documented times Commander bit USSS agents.

The outlet suggests the number is actually much higher as it fails to include additional incidents involving "executive residence staff and other White House workers."

The German Shepherd's biting history became such a prominent hazard for the White House as a workplace that it inspired an internal memo to warn agents of their personal safety while being on post to protect the president.

“The recent dog bites have challenged us to adjust our operational tactics when Commander is present – please give lots of room,” according to CNN's report citing a June 2023 email sent by an unnamed assistant special agent in charge of USSS’ Presidential Protective Division.

It also warned that detailed agents “must be creative to ensure our own personal safety.”

The incidents reportedly involved Secret Service’s uniformed division, members of the president’s protective detail, and other USSS officials, and occurred at the White House and its residence as well as the Biden family homes in Wilmington and Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, at Camp David, and also during Thanksgiving holiday where the family spends their time in Nantucket, Massachusetts.

A Biden source told CNN that the family feels “awful” and remains “heartbroken” over the Commander's biting problems.

Meantime, Commander was forced to be sent away.

“The president and first lady care deeply about the safety of those who work at the White House and those who protect them every day," reads a statement to CNN by Elizabeth Alexander, first lady Jill Biden’s communications director.

"Despite additional dog training, leashing, working with veterinarians, and consulting with animal behaviorists, the White House environment simply proved too much for Commander. Since the fall, he has lived with other family members."
