The girl, who was not identified, was bitten in the face on Monday when she went to pet the 4-year-old Portuguese Water Dog, TMZ.Com reported.
The bite left a gash under the girl's eye and she was treated by President Obama's family physician Dr Ronny Jackson who said she needed stitches.
Jackson said the bite would leave a small scar, which apparently upset the teen, who posted photos with angry captions after the incident, New York Daily News quoted multiple reports as saying, a week before Obama leaves the White House at the end of his second term as US President.
In that instance, the girl was fine, Sunny even reportedly licked her face.
Sunny's 8-year-old canine sibling Bo, christened as the "First Dog," does not have any bite attacks on his record.
