Former Vice President Joe Biden and his family have been fostering a dog from the local shelter for the past several months.
However, after spending some time with Major, the Bidens realized the pup was too much a part of their family to let go.
In a series of pictures released by the Humane Society, Joe shows off the newest member of the Biden clan!

As a foster family, the Bidens certainly failed, but as a forever-family, they came in first place.
Today is Major’s lucky day! Not only did Major find his forever home, but he got adopted by Vice President Joe Biden & Dr. Jill Biden! The Bidens have gotten to know Major while fostering him and are now ready to… https://t.co/Cjn4RjYAJE

Former VP @JoeBiden adopted himself good boy Major today from the @delawarehumane.
The Bidens fell in love with Major while fostering him, which clearly makes this a #FosterFail 😉 – Here is the VP showing Major some puppy pics, and celebrating his adoption. ❤️🐶 #AdoptDontShop pic.twitter.com/2loQyXFYrp

Twitter thought Major and Biden were a perfect match.
Biden looks like he just realized that he adopted the canine version of himself. https://t.co/f6fI4yGvwj

Hopefully, the Bidens will inspire other families to rescue their dogs from shelters.
Joe Biden adopting this amazing shelter pup sets a great example to everyone out there to go check out their local shelters and save a life or volunteer/donate if you can't adopt a pet right now. #AdoptDontShop pic.twitter.com/SXLXW8tx6U

Biden: “I just don’t know what to do. He just wants to go make friends with everyone and he barks constantly and there’s this weird, charismatic gleam in his eye. How am I supposed to keep him in”
Obama: “Um, Joe”
Biden: “Oh. Yeah, I’m sorry about that, Barack. So what do I do?”— Franklin Leonard (@franklinleonard) November 17, 2018
Biden is going to be Obama in this pic and the dog is going to be Biden. pic.twitter.com/KIGD3X90US

Congratulations on the newest Biden, Mr. Vice President! May he make you as happy as you’ve already made him.
This is one big pup. And kudos to the Bidens for rescuing Major. Hard for full-grown dogs to find a home. Hopefully this will inspire more folks left and right or neither to explore this route… https://t.co/uL0gMPqxZ5
