Even though he’s not in office anymore, former Vice President Joe Biden may have met his match: a Golden Retriever puppy named “Biden.”

What’s more? The pup’s human mother is a Republican staffer.

The owner, who identified only as “Sydney” when talking to the Huffington Post, said she named the Golden after the Vice Prez because he was her favorite politician, even from across party lines.

Sydney described Biden as a pure “DC dog” and his rapidly growing Instagram page confirms it! The canine Biden has been photographed in the Capitol, in the rotunda, and on the floor of the senate!

Even though Biden the pup and Biden the human have their ideological differences, who could resist the bond they share?
