By January 2021, President-elect Joe Biden and First Lady Dr.
Jill Biden will move into the White House, together with their two German Shepherds, Champ and Major.
While having such important humans comes with a certain level of fame, and the two beautiful DOTUS – Dogs of the United States – have now joined Twitter, to share their lives as first dogs.
Unfortunately, someone already managed to have the @DOTUS account, but you can still keep up with Champ and Major on their account, @First_Dogs_USA. Y
“We are the First Dogs of the USA, Champ and Major Biden. You can call us #DOTUS. We love nom noms, snuggles and we can’t wait to explore the WH!” Their Twitter bio reads.
Days after it was revealed that Biden had won the presidency, one of the dogs – Major – made headlines all over the world, for becoming the first rescue dog to live in the White House.
The Bidens first began fostering the German Shepherd through the Delaware Humane Association after their daughter, Ashley Blazer Biden, introduced them to a litter of puppies, but it wasn’t long before he became a permanent companion in their home.point 333 |
