TMZ reported that she was trying to pet and kiss the Portuguese Water Dog when Sunny bit her on the face. The incident left a cut requiring stitches on the visitor’s right cheek.
Dr. Ronny Jackson, the Obama family physician, checked on the visitor and determined she needed the stitches.
She’ll be left with a small scar, but will otherwise suffer no long-term damage from the incident.
The Obamas have two dogs, both Portuguese Water Dogs. Bo, who is 8, has not been known to bite anyone and the breed is considered very docile.
