First dogs Champ and Major Biden are back in Washington, D.C., after spending part of the month in Delaware, where Major underwent remedial training after causing a "minor injury" at the White House.

Michael LaRosa, spokesman for first lady Jill Biden, confirmed to NPR on Wednesday morning that the dogs are at the White House, but did not specify when they returned. One of the family's two German shepherds can be seen on an Executive Residence balcony in a photo snapped by Reuters correspondent Jeff Mason on Monday night.White House press secretary Jen Psaki told reporters on Wednesday that Champ and Major joined the first family at Camp David over the weekend, and returned to the White House on Sunday. She said it "will not be uncommon" for the dogs — and their owners — to go back and forth to Delaware.

Psaki said earlier this month that Major "reacted in a way that resulted in a minor injury" to the unnamed individual, with NBC News reporting that he nipped the hand of a Secret Service agent. She said that both dogs had been sent to the Bidens' home in Wilmington, Del., as part of a previously planned visit while the first lady was traveling.
