Joe Biden has a dog problem

Last winter, over the New Year’s holiday, a Secret Service agent patrolling Joe Biden’s Delaware home went to check out a report of a sound going off on an alarm keypad. The agent didn’t find an intruder, but did find one of the first family’s guests, who cracked open a glass door to discuss the situation.

That’s when Commander, the Biden family German Shepherd, entered the picture.

“Commander squeezed his way through the door and immediately bit/latched onto the lower right side of my back,” the agent wrote in an email detailing the incident. The whole encounter only lasted about 10 seconds. The agent was left bruised and bleeding, but not in need of further medical attention.

That agent was actually lucky. The 196-page trove of internal communications obtained under the Freedom of Information Act by the conservative legal organization Judicial Watch reveals a slew of incidents where members of the agency assigned to take a bullet for the president wind up taking a German Shepherd’s teeth instead.
