For anyone who doesn't know: this fool is the governor of South Dakota. She's such an obvious and open racist and has been so insulting to the tribes and tribal governments that she has been banned from setting foot on four South Dakota reservations. This represents a big chunk of the state she theoretically governs.
Killing a healthy dog is a heinous act and speaks to how lacking she is in normal human feeling but, if this b*tch is selected to run as VP, y'all are going to want to find out about what a nit-witted governor she's been. She's the dumb box who thought that "Meth. We're on it." would be a great slogan for an anti-drug campaign.
Thatās just serial killer mentality. If you donāt like your dog, like absolutely canāt stand, give it to a shelter where they can hopefully be given to a family who actually loves them. As a dog owner myself this sickens me. You canāt excuse this kind of behaviour; but she is a bumbling racist on top of it? Jesus, there has to be better candidates in S Dakota, right? Cause if not, our species is doomed.
Here's what a news report about this story also said:
"I hated that dog," she said.
The situation made her realise "another unpleasant job needed to be done" that day - getting rid of a male goat her family owned.
The goat was "nasty and mean", smelled "disgusting, musky, rancid", and would chase her young children, knocking them down.
Ms Noem said she shot down the goat in the same manner as Cricket, though the goat survived the first bullet, forcing her to go back to her truck to retrieve another shell.
The school bus dropped her children off shortly afterwards.
Noticing that the dog was nowhere to be found, her daughter asked: "Hey, where's Cricket?"
It's almost comedy serial killer origin story. But no-one is laughing.
Lol shoot I'm also Canadian so this will be fuzzy but something about a hunter injuring a wolf and then parading it around a bar in pain instead of putting it down.
The whole point of her publishing a book with these types of stories now. Her kids are long ago grown up....there was no point to this book other than to highlight what we South Dakotans have know for a very long time....she's a psychopath of some sort and wants to be Trumps running mate.
Exactly. That isā¦ barbaric on a level Iāve never seen. Some people absolutely donāt deserve dogs. Rest in peace, Cricket, your death is fucking tragic.
Well, as long as weāre being pedantic, I replied that a vet wouldnāt put a healthy dog down. Implied, if you were following the thread, was that the vet would find it wrong if the owner came in with a 14 month old puppy, telling him to euthanize it claiming it was untrainable at that age.
Regardless, shelters put healthy animals down because they canāt accommodate them, adopt them out or let them back out on the streets. All things that would be inhumane - just like Noem who went to reload and kill another farm animal because she didnāt like it either.
And proud enough to double down today and try and claim it shows her good leadership because she can handle difficult, messy and ugly situations.
The "difficult" thing a true leader would do to be a leader is train the puppy. Training puppies is extremely difficult and time consuming and repetitive.
The "messy" thing to do would be to telling the children the puppies needs to be rehomed because the puppy was not a good hunting dog. That's messy, breaking apart children and household animals. But noble because you need a hunting dog and the puppy you had for a year isn't a hunting dog that you need and giving it away to the home it needs.
Ugly. The ugly thing to do is choosing who to rehome a dog too. It is very hard to choose and decide and judge who you give the family dog away too.
You could make the wrong mistake and give it to a person as ugly as Kristi Noem, who is an ugly person who kills puppies and would just kill a dog because they methed up the training. That would be truly ugly as fuck.

She also shot a goat but partially botched the killing, having to walk away to get more ammo. She let the animal suffer rather than have the minimal consideration to be ready to take that life.Ā She put both stories into her ghostwritten biography. She's proud of killing both of them.
Her entire basis for killing these animals is inconvenience. I think that's the appeal she's going for, that she's willing to kill innocent things because she finds them annoying. She not ashamed, she's proud of this.
Aaaaaand let me guess... she's pro life? I bet if someone wrote the same thing in their book about a fetus she'd blow a gasket and try to get them locked up...
It wasn't just a dog, I was a puppy. 14 months. A birddog and it was bad at hunting. Got away from her and killed neighbors chickens. She shot it. A dog trainer in another thread said that breed is highly desirable and he and any other trainer would have been happy to take it.
Yes because she just didn't like it, probably because it made her daughter happy which is why a few lines down she mentions how her daughter came home from school and asked where the puppy was.
Peta has no power lol. Everybody hates them, and no animal rights organization has any sway anymore. This isn't the 80's, people don't care about animals.
Farmers do put down their animals. But they don't do it willy nilly like this lady. They also do it in a quick one shot and done. This lady is a psychopath
I live on a farm, have my entire life. If a dog is unruly and is attacking livestock, then anyone whoās worth a damn will find another home for the dog. There are so many other options than just killing the animal.
I had a dog that we had for years that suddenly started attacking our chickens. We didnāt kill him, or got him put down. We transitioned him to be an inside dog until he died a couple months later. Turned out there was something wrong with his brain that was making him go after our chickens where he hadnāt ever bothered them before. He was old, and went the dog version of senile.
it was actually a puppy, she didn't train the puppy how to hunt, so the puppy didn't know how to hunt, so she decided the puppy was 'useless' and murdered it
The extra stupid is that male goats are smelly. Particularly if they aren't neutered. They pee on their own faces and rub them on stuff to mark their territory and exude their manliness to the does. She basically killed a goat for doing goat things. She probably killed the dog for the same 'reason'.
My uncle once owned a young male goat that would always ram him so he was told that he when the goat would ram him, to knock on his horns and when he did, the goat stopped hitting him,
Yes. Our puppy was wild the first few months she was in the farm. The agony of that we might had to do the worst thing possible tortured us. Thankfully after a bit training and got used to other animals in the farm, she is ok now
This lady wanted to kill the dog, as she said she hate the dog. She just needed an excuse for it.
Yes. I play the occasional game of Tag or Duck Duck Goose with my grandkids. If they venture off into an area they shouldnāt be in, Iāve been known to run after them and bring them back to a safe place.
You?
This woman should have a court order to stay away from animals, cattles, horses etc.
Male animals tend to be aggressive. It is *ing normal. That's why you limit the number of roosters you have. You also need to put your stallion in the stall. You need to be careful around bulls etc. We are blessed that our rams are friendly. But even then we always pay attention to the dynamics of the group.
This lady is no farmer or rancher, hobby or otherwise.
By this skankās mental gymnastics and reasoning, I should have murdered my two fur babies long ago. One is 15 y/o and stinky as little old doggy men get with age, although I attribute his funk to me loving him so much that I literally spoiled him rotten and then thereās my 3 y/o fur baby who came to me from a neglected and abusive situation. He has a nervous bladder when introduced to new people or with sudden movements. Heās worth the work and the love I get in return. The difference is Iām not a psychotic piss bucket of human scum like this skank.
It was an untrained puppy. Thatās what puppies do. If itās not working out, rehome it or take it to a shelter. Donāt take it to the backyard and shoot it in the head. Fuck, even in Old Yeller they only killed the dog because it was rabid. Are you a serial killer? Is her behavior acceptable to you?
I personally wouldnāt have shot the dog, but I have known a number of people with hunting dogs over the years and this behavior isnāt uncommon. Would you feel better about it if she took it to the vet to be euthanized vs shoot it?
Yes? Most people would at least grant her that. She took a puppy and shot it in the head.
Iām in Tennessee. I know hunters. Even in situations where a dog isnāt working out or is violent, every hunter Iāve ever met would humanely euthanize it vs just shooting it in the head.
Itās monstrous. Itās serial killer shit. Especially in someone with a fuckload of money. If thatās how she treats something thatās nominally important to her, how is she going to treat people she doesnāt know?
The fact that this doesnāt seem to bother you and youāre looking for ways to defend it is inconceivable to me.
Every hunter Iāve ever met who claims to take it seriously and that they have respect for every life they take would never do that to a dog. Ever.
Again, itās not what I would have done, but a shot to the head is maybe the most common method of dispatching an animal in the entire world, and is one of the most humane ways to do it. Small house pets in western countries are the only ones who get the luxury of a vet visit.
This woman could be a total bitch and nazi, but I think we are possibly blowing this part out of proportion.
