Did Kristi Noem Shoot a Puppy?

South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem is facing widespread condemnation for shooting her dog. In her upcoming autobiography, "No Going Back," Noem writes that her wire-haired pointer had an “aggressive personality” and was "untrainable." When her dog slaughtered the neighbor's chickens, Noem revealed that she shot the dog in the head. Now, her admission may have torpedoed Noem's chances of being named Donald Trump's running mate. Inside Edition’s Ann Mercogliano has more.

She could’ve just gave up her dog up for adoption if she didn’t want it

Noem killed the puppy cause she hated the dog.
She stated so in your book.
I would never vote for a dog killer. Pure evil person.

[jkzeisy]

She's just vile. Shooting a puppy? You can just give the puppy away. She's completely heartless.

[brambledemon]

She was foolish to give her opposition that information. This was a self inflicted wound.

[notapplicable-znus]

A criminal psychologist once reported in a court trial concerning a sadistic serial killer that the signs were first exhibited when the killer first started killing animals before moving on to young women

Who would give any political responsibilities to some woman who can't even train a 14 months dog ?

[AmericanCryptid]

I can’t imagine how someone would believe a story of them killing a puppy would make them more electable.

OMG Animal cruelty! She needs to be charged for cruelty!

[LuciaPemoni]

She broke the law . 'LIVESTOCK' ISN'T A LETTING YOUR UNTRAINED PUPPY UNLEASHED INTO AN AREA with loose chickens. "Livestock" means any cattle, sheep, swine, goat, or any horse, mule or other equine, "

There's probably more dead bodies than gravel in Noam's "Gravel Pit".

[Sillyerra]

So because of her own irresponsibility, letting an untrained dog go murder chickens she then punishes the dog? What a psychopath.

[East_L.A_Ivy]

Shocking and disgusting.she could have surrendered the dog instead of play God taking its life.

[therealryufromjapan]

A person that is mean to, animals is no good person

[Seasons_change]

What the F@&$!!! She openly admitted to killing her dog?? How is she not canceled or in jail?

[alyviolet]

Honestly, her ignorance is astounding. Even now she has no clue why her bird hunting dog would kill birds, immediately after being encouraged to hunt birds.

[mr.skullma]

What an evil monster. Even before this news came out, something seemed off about Noem. Rest in peace, Cricket.

[PressedONNAILS]

She needs to go to prison for animal cruelty

[chewygaming]

She took a coward's approach and brags about it. She thinks that if it's worthless, then any treatment is just.

[moniquewrites]

I don’t have a dog but it’s weird to brag about this let alone do the act itself to see a being lifeless after such an inhumane killing.

[antientdude]

What the hell was she thinking of when she disclosed that info.
