Turns Out, Joe Biden’s Dog Major Will Be The First Shelter Dog To Live In The White House In History
On Saturday, after days and days of waiting for the election results, thousands of people went out to the streets, rooftops, and balconies armed with cheerful posters, signs, and American flags to celebrate the beginning of a brand new and much-awaited era. It was a truly beautiful celebration all over the country, honoring the day of Joe Biden being elected as the new President of the United States.
And you know what? There’s one particular thing that’s making this year’s election this much more exciting. Turns out, in January 2021, Biden’s doggy Major will officially be the first-ever shelter dog to live in the White House. Have you ever seen a more accurate representation of the classic “started from the bottom, now we’re here” quote by Drake? I sure haven’t.
This year’s election is bringing quite a few firsts into the history of the White House

Turns out, the adorable Major has been a part of the Biden family since 2018. The doggy came to the Delaware Humane Association when he was a small baby along with five of his siblings. Joe and Jill first heard about Major when their daughter showed them a litter of puppies needing to be temporarily homed.

And after fostering the little good boy for some time, the couple fell absolutely in love with Major and decided to adopt him from the Delaware Humane Society.

“Today is Major’s lucky day! Not only did Major find his forever home, but he got adopted by Vice President Joe Biden & Dr. Jill Biden! The Bidens have gotten to know Major while fostering him and are now ready to make the adoption official. Best of luck and thank you for being one of our Friends for life!” the Delaware Humane Association announced the good news on Facebook in November 2018.
The Bidens also got another dog named Champ, who has been with the family since 2008

Champ is a German shepherd who was purchased from a high-volume commercial breeder back in 2008. Apparently, the Bidens received quite a bit of criticism for buying a dog when there are so many of them living in shelters.
Now the two furry boys are best of friends

Besides Eric, did Donald actually have a pet of any kind in the whitehouse?
I used to think he had a Guinea pig, but then I realized that it was just his hair.
Thanks for that! I actually DID laugh out loud. 👍
It ran away after he lost the election in search of a better life
Oof
Lol!
OHHH BURNNN
I don't think animals like him enough to live with him either
I think his pet was called Melania. Exotic, expensive upkeep costs and bites.
don't see yours comment before put mine . oopsy
Eric and Don Jr love to shoot and kill animals for fun. Including endangered species. The quote from above is applicable: "Never trust a president who doesn't have a dog".
Or a cat. If I ever become president I'm bringing a kitten
Do Melania's mink coats count?
Your comment made my day! 👍
nope....just another reason not to trust him!
yeah he had rabits they came because they thought his skin was food
I bet he didn't have a pet in any house.
yes it's name is Melania. (sorry)
The man has no interest in spending time with anything but himself, so... no.
Champ and Major are very handsome doggos. I prefer friendly dogs over barking madmen in the White House.
Aw! I love that Major was a foster fail! Those are both some gorgeous dogs!
