A veritable little presidential menagerie. After Nemo, a labrador cross griffon adopted in 2017 – who became the beloved mascot of the Élysée, always spoiled between his Christmas presents or even his holidays in Brégançon – and Agathe, a chicken offered in 2018 by the director of the Les Fermiers brand de Loué, Brigitte and Emmanuel Macron are now the happy masters of two new dogs. In February 2024, The Parisian revealed that two other residents had made themselves comfortable at the presidential palace: Jules and Jeanne, offered by Kassym-Jomart Tokaïev, the president of Kazakhstan, during his official visit to France three months earlier. Both Tazi greyhounds very quickly made their place in the family. Our colleagues say they like playing with their big brother Nemo, or even sleeping at the feet of the head of state in his office.
Two more friends for Nemo, the famous Labrador of the presidential couple
Moreover, Nemo himself does not seem unhappy to share a bit of the spotlight with his two new comrades, as proven by the very first photo of them published on Sunday April 7, 2024. It is Tristan Bromet, special advisor to the cabinet of the President of the Republic and director of Brigitte Macron’s cabinet, who revealed a photo of the three presidential dogs on his Instagram account. We can see the black labrador in the foreground, with his ever so adorable face and his blue collar stamped “so chic”, and the two fawn-colored greyhounds behind him. Jeanne is sitting and seems very calmalmost posing for the camera, while Jules stands alert on all four legs, probably after seeing someone pass in this corridor of the Élysée. An image that did not fail to melt Internet users. “Nemo is even happier with two new friends”, “Friends!”, “The club of three”, “Magnificent!”, “So cute”, “Nemo must be happy to have these two extra friends”, can we read among the comments. It remains to be seen whether these two newcomers will be able to show themselves.”more consistent with the label” than their predecessor, known for having done some little stupid things.
