Life without pets ends in the White House. In January next year, two shepherds will enter at once - Champ and Major (Champion and Major). Champ has been living with the Biden for 12 years. Major Jill and Joe Biden were recruited from a dog shelter in 2018.
Dogs in the White House are a long-standing tradition. Barack Obama had the Portuguese Water Dog Bo, George W. Bush had the Scottish Terrier Barney, and Bill Clinton had a chocolate-colored Labrador Buddy.
Donald Trump was the first president of the United States in 100 years who had no dog.
For the first time, a dog from a shelter will live in the residence of an American president.
