Dog of Irish President Barks at Joe Biden

Dogs for the most part have a great sense of distinguishing when trouble is coming and that could be the case today in Ireland.

As Joe Biden and the President of Ireland Michael Higgins made their way to the President’s residence, President Higgin’s dog Misneach started to bark at Joe Biden.

Misneach started to bark as soon as Biden started getting closer and barked even louder once Biden attempted to talk to the dog.

Watch it go down here:

Per the Daily Mail:

President Joe Biden received a warm welcome from Irish President Michael Higgins on Thursday. Less so from his dog.

As the two leaders made their way into the grounds of the Irish president’s residence for a tree planting ceremony, Higgins tried to introduce his American counterpart to Misneach, one of his enormous Bernese Mountain dog.

But Misneach — named for the Irish word for ‘courage — was having none of it.

As Biden moved in to show it some love, the two-year-old did its best to upset U.S.-Irish relations by barking at the president and backing away.

Social media users were quick to seize on the moment, claiming Misneach only responded to commands in Irish.
