If President Biden’s dog Commander, AKA the White House biter, really is getting training — as the administration’s claimed — he’s been getting the wrong kind … that’s according to a former Secret Service officer who’s dealt with other First pooches.
Marshall Mirarchi worked in the Secret Service’s K-9 division for a decade — including when Biden was VP in the Obama administration — and he joined us on “TMZ Live” Thursday to explain why he’s not so sure Commander’s legitimately graduated obedience school.
According to Marshall, dogs NEVER get past a point of no return — even a recidivist like Commander — when it comes to training. He says they can always be re-trained, although the amount of time it takes a dog to fall in line is a different story.
Regardless, Marshall thinks all signs point to Commander not getting the proper direction, and he tells us what can, and should, be done to get him White House-ready again.
He also addressed how difficult it is for WH staffers living and working with a dog that’s, up to this point, very unpredictable.
As we reported, Commander was booted from the White House this week after reportedly biting a minimum of 11 people — with at least 1 recent victim being sent to the hospital.

BTW, we spoke with Marshall back in July — when Commander had bitten 7 people over 4 months — and he claimed again the dog could be re-trained … but based on Marshall’s lengthy experience, it sounds like someone dropped the ball.
