There's a reason that very evil villians in movies kill dogs. It's real bad to be a dog killer when it isn't like putting a dieing dog out of its misery.

There are so many details that are left out and allow for this kind of arm chair quarterback assessment. When the dogs are done in the field we take their shock collars off and they go in their crates in the back of the truck/suv. I could just as easily assume based on other posters, that this dog got out somehow (previous posters dog gift that was great except it was always looking for a chance to bolt) and made a beeline for the chickens. Maybe someone left the tailgate open and the dog got out. If the dog was as uncontrollable as we are led to believe, then my "assumption" is that she wasn't just letting it out to roam around these people's property. But hey your guess is as good as anyones |

If your dog snaps at you, you can smack it hard and make it understand that you're its Alpha so it won't come at you again, but it will still be a vicious dog and chances are that it will eventually attack some unsuspecting person. I think it would be irresponsible to rehome a dog like that. Goats are just livestock.

Noem decided to kill the unnamed goat the same way she had just killed Cricket the dog. But though she “dragged him to a gravel pit”, the goat jumped as she shot and therefore survived the wound. Noem says she went back to her truck, retrieved another shell, then “hurried back to the gravel pit and put him down”. At that point, Noem writes, she realised a construction crew had watched her kill both animals. The startled workers swiftly got back to work, she writes, only for a school bus to arrive and drop off Noem’s children. “Kennedy looked around confused,” Noem writes of her daughter, who asked: “Hey, where’s Cricket?”

Over the course of human history, many political careers have ended in a pit at the wrong end of a gun.
But I bet this is the only time the story involved a billygoat, a dog named Cricket, and a school bus. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By 15jonshoot: Why did you leave this part out? When Noem finally grabbed Cricket, she says, the dog “whipped around to bite me”. Then, as the chickens’ owner wept, Noem repeatedly apologised, wrote the shocked family a check “for the price they asked, and helped them dispose of the carcasses littering the scene of the crime”. I suppose I should have included it as It highlights her failure to properly train the dog and her poor judgement and lack of critical thinking she displayed by taking an unpredictable and poorly trained dog into a situation where chickens were roaming freely.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By DK-Prof: The dog killed chickens and tried to bite her when she attempted to control it. Yeah it’s less about her shooting the dog than it is her stupidity to talk about it. Out here in Suzie soccer mom suburbia, people have their dogs trained to the point that they can be walked off a leash without leaving their owner’s side. The story just reads as, I couldn’t and failed to train my dog so I got mad and shot it and while I was at it I took out that old goat that always annoyed me too. |

Old school would have been to tie a dead chicken around the dogs neck and leave it there until it rots off.
She's as emotionally hard as any man...any asshole man that is... Too bad though if her judgement in such mundane matters is typical of this kind of action... Ahhh what the heck doesn't matter anyway she's toast after the media runs with this...because she's conservative it will be well blasted and she'll be judged by this and only this...

Shelters around the country euthanize an estimated 670,000 dogs and 860,000 cats each year. 45% of all cats who enter shelters are eventually euthanized. |

Regarding the dog, I’m still not sure how failing to properly train your dog and then shooting it should be seen as a virtue. Sure, kill the dog but you still fucked up in the training part.
Regarding the decision to then kill the goat, that’s just fucking weird and shows some judgement lapses. Regarding failing to kill the goat the first time kinda reinforces the apparent lack of competence indicated by the failure to train the dog in the first place. And then the biggest red flag… writing about it and thinking this will make her appear tough. I’m sure it could all be misconstrued, but seriously, if you’re going to make the general point about growing up on a farm maybe just talk about how you had to put down dogs that got too old. |
