Pets have been a comfort during the pandemic and in a new public service announcement, First Lady Jill Biden — and official White House pooches — are using their high-profile platform to remind people to wear masks.
Champ and Major are seen lounging in front of a fireplace in the new 30-second PSA.

“The unconditional love of a dog is one of the most beautiful things on Earth,” she says. “We owe it to them to keep ourselves healthy.”
“So please keep wearing your masks — even when you’re out walking your dog,” Biden adds.
Then then looks at Champ and Major and says, “Right guys?”
One dog barks in response.
