US President Joe Biden’s dog, a German Shepherd, has been sent back to Delaware after what was described as a “biting incident”, according to Gray TV White House Correspondent Jon Decker.

“He bit a secret service agent,” Mr Decker told Sky News host Chris Kenny.

“This German Shepherd is a rescue dog that the Bidens adopted and obviously is not acclimated just yet to his surroundings at the White House.”

“As a result, he’s actually been moved down to Wilmington, Delaware, and will be staying down [there] with a family friend of the Bidens and obviously is probably going to get some training.”
