Champ, a German Shepherd who had been a part of the Biden family since 2008, passed away on Saturday, according to the Bidens.
Champ passed away in Wilmington, Delaware, at the Biden family home, a White House spokeswoman said.
President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden said, “Our hearts are heavy tonight as we notify you that Champ, our beloved German Shepherd, died quietly at home.” “For the previous 13 years, he was our constant, beloved companion and the entire Biden family adored him.”
“He liked nothing more at the end of the day than curling up at our feet in front of a fire, joining us as a soothing presence in meetings, or sunbathing himself in the White House garden,” the Bidens said.“Our hearts are heavy tonight as we inform you that Champ, our beloved German Shepherd, died quietly at home.” He was our constant, cherished friend for the last 13 years, and the entire Biden family adored him.
