While Joe Biden is already abundantly famous for being the present American President, he always finds new ways to go viral through controversies or videos that surface on the internet.
In the recent news, Joe Biden’s controversy is related to his two-year-old dog, Commander, as well as several reports from within the White House.
In a viral video that surfaced online, Joe Biden was seen kicking his dog, Commander, in an airport after it behaved oddly. It was also revealed that Biden had removed the dog from the White House due to safety concerns as it showed signs of aggressive behavior against several Secret Service staff members.
So, what exactly happened to Joe Biden’s dog, Commander? And why was it removed from the White House deliberately?
Joe Biden’s Viral Video Explained: Why Did the American President Kick His Dog?
Recently, the video concerning Biden and his two-year-old German Shepard of the Biden family, Commander, has gone viral on social media.
As seen in the above video, Joe Biden tries to get his dog into the car after off boarding the aircraft. However, seeing as the dog’s leash is caught between his legs, Biden kicks the dog.
While it certainly seems like the dog isn’t listening to Biden like usual, that doesn’t mean he should kick it, as it is considered animal abuse. However, according to many news outlets, the situation is bleaker than we anticipated.
Did Joe Biden Remove His Dog From the White House?
According to CNN, Biden’s dog, Commander, has been involved in several biting incidents at the White House, with the victims ranging from Secret Service personnel to residence staff.
While the US Secret Service initially acknowledged that 11 biting incidents have taken place, the number may be higher. The bites from the dog resulted in severe treatment for some victims.
On the other hand, many received medical attention from the White House Medical Unit. Following these incidents, Commander, the two-year-old German Shepard, was reportedly removed from the White House residence.
Elizabeth Alexander, who works for the First Lady as the communications director, has informed CNN about the incident. In her words,
“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. Commander is not presently on the White House campus while the next steps are evaluated.”
Even though the Commander has been removed from the White House, what happens to the German Shepard and whether it receives the required treatment remains to be seen.
