President Joe Biden’s younger dog, Commander, bit another US Secret Service agent at the White House Monday evening, CNN has learned, the 11th known biting incident involving the 2-year-old German Shepherd.
One thing i never see mentioned in all this is just how much dogs take their cues from their owner. Joe's probably confused and combative as hell most of the day, can't blame a social animal for picking up signals.
Hard to say, my first instinct would just be that the dog is not being trained properly by the Bidens. German shepherds are very intelligent, but also tend to be very protective of their owners. If they haven't been socialized properly, they could definitely lash out at anyone they think is a threat.
Beautiful dogs and properly trained they can get along just fine with kids and strangers, but you don't just buy one as an accessory.
