President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden announced in a statement that their 13-year-old German Shepherd, Champ, had “passed away peacefully at home,” notes CBS News:
He was our constant, cherished companion during the last 13 years and was adored by the entire Biden family. Even as Champ’s strength waned in his last months, when we came into a room, he would immediately pull himself up, his tail always wagging, and nuzzle us for an ear scratch or a belly rub.
