President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden have added to their pet family, the first lady’s spokesperson tells CNN.A new puppy was spotted Monday playing on the South Lawn of the White House. According to two sources familiar with the new pet, the dog looks to be a German Shepherd or similar breed.The puppy is named “Commander” and was a gift to the President from his family, a source familiar tells CNN.
Michael LaRosa, Jill Biden’s press secretary, confirmed the news of a new family puppy. “Yes. There is (a puppy),” LaRosa said.
I guess Major nipped a secret service agent so he’s been rendered to the black site. Well, to Biden’s house in Wilmington which he probably likes better anyway. But Joe needs a dog in the White House so now he has one.
Apparently, the cat is on hold indefinitely which is good because life is hell for cats around rambunctious puppies.
Happy Hollandaise, everyone! If you’d like to put a little something in the old Christmas stocking you can do so below. Cheers — digby
