As you can imagine based on this face, human Biden noticed the puppy right away.

“As soon as he saw the dog during the actual speech, he pointed at the dog, tapped his friend and then started like cracking up," Sydney, Biden’s owner, told BuzzFeed News. "Right towards the end, I, like, kind of signaled him, and he... gave me a wink to come over.”

“I named the dog Biden just because he is probably my favorite politician and favorite elected official,” Sydney revealed.

“I really respect Joe Biden even though I don’t necessarily align with him politically.”
