In reply to the discussion: Biden's dog Commander has bitten Secret Service officers 10 times in four months, records show [View all]slightlv
(7,790 posts)54. Considering how many incidents there have been with the Secret Service agents
since the days of Obama, I'd trust the dogs to know who to trust and who not to trust, when it comes to people. If the dog bites someone, do a background check and then get rid of them. Animals have a sixth sense about these things. A lifetime of experience has shown me they're never wrong... Biden is wise to trust his dogs - especially in a compound where he is surrounded by trumpist enemies.

Commander is not being set up for success -- which is what I said about Major, too.

Not only are they OK with it, they are blaming the people that were bit as deserving it.

Also, getting bit by a dog is not an indication of your moral character.

This dog's named Commander, it replaced Major due to Major being removed for having biting problems.

Maybe the Secret Service needs to be fumigated? They may just still have the stink of Trump on them.

I tend to believe it. If it's true, then the Bidens should have rehomed that dog long ago.
