Biden’s dog ‘Commander’ bit US Secret Service agents at least 24 times

Joe Biden’s dog has bitten United States Secret Service (USSS) personnel at least 24 times, according to newly-released internal documents.

Sky News reported the US president’s German shepherd, ‘Commander’, was removed from the White House last October after he bit a female officer, resulting in her needing medical treatment.

That attack was the 11th recorded publicly at the time, but there were even more attacks than initially reported with at least 24 between October 2022 and July 2023, according to new documents obtained by CNN.

The incidents included Secret Service members getting bitten on the wrist, elbow, forearm, chest, waist, shoulder and thigh.

One agent needed stitches after being bitten on their forearm at the White House while another needed six stitches on their hand after suffering a “severe deep open wound”, documents show. Agents had to “be creative to ensure our own personal safety” due to the dog’s behaviour, an unnamed assistant special agent in charge of the USSS’s Presidential Protective Division wrote in a June 2023 email.
