US President Joe Biden’s dog Commander is “not presently on the White House campus” following a series of biting incidents involving White House staff and US Secret Service officers.
“They remain grateful for the patience and support of the US Secret Service and all involved, as they continue to work through solutions,” Alexander said in a statement, adding, “Commander is not presently on the White House campus while next steps are evaluated.”
Jean-Pierre referred questions to the First Lady’s office, which said Commander and Dale Haney, the head groundskeeper at the White House, were playing and that no skin was broken in an incident that was photographed by a tourist and shared with a news organisation, which published the image online.
