Commander Biden, the president’s dog, has reportedly been removed from the White House following at least a dozen biting incidents.
Communications director for the First Lady Jill Biden, Elizabeth Alexander, told Fox News, "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."
She added, "They remain grateful for the patience and support of the US Secret Service and all involved, as they continue to work through solutions. Commander is not presently on the White House campus while next steps are evaluated."
On Wednesday, after it was revealed that the German shepherd bit another Secret Service agent at the White House last month, White Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was asked if Biden was concerned about being sued over the dog's attacks. She referred questions to the First Lady’s office and the Secret Service.
This is the 12th known incident of Commander biting Secret Service or White House employees. Judicial Watch, a conservative legal activist group, previously obtained reports of the previous incidents from October 2022 through January 2023 and CNN noted there were more biting incidents that went unreported.
The New York Post obtained Secret Service communications about one incident in November 2022 where a Secret Service officer was sent to the hospital for treatment after being bitten by the dog on the thigh and arm.
According to the Daily Mail, Commander bit White House grounds superintendent Dale Haney several weeks ago.
The Bidens previously sent their other German shepherd Major to live with friends in Delaware after the dog also bit Secret Service agents and White House staffers.
