Its different to show aggression to a child, but a hunting dog is always going to go after birds ( chickens). A 14 month dog could have been given up to a rescue, with the caveat that the dog eats chickens. You could have had a suburban homeowner (who hunts )adopt the dog and train it. A 14 month pure bred puppy would be adopted quickly. If you look at rescues online, they will state things like “ dog cannot get along with cats”, or “ dog cannot be rehomed with other dogs in the house”. This dog could have done fine by being placed with a hunter who knows how to train in a more suburban neighborhood. Why in the world would a person who is seeking higher office admit she killed a puppy? We don’t need stupid people running this country. We are already suffering enough.
No, a hunting dog will not always go after chickens.
On our remote family farm a dog that went after chickens would not be tolerated.
Always had at least three hounds that roamed free.
Two redbones and a huge mixed hound (everyone’s favorite, got hit by a train when he had a varmint trapped under the tracks).
The 3 foxhounds were kept penned up or they would run themselves to exhaustion.
None of them killed chickens or ate eggs.
Yes, there are rescues these days, which are wonderful options if the dog is not human aggressive.

You lost all credibility with this statement. No hunter wants a dog who will eat the bird he just shot. A hunting dog is not going to go after birds ( chickens). A pointer will indicate where the birds are in the field. A retriever will gently pick up the bird with a “soft” mouth that does not damage it to bring it back to the hunter.
