Savage looking lol
Yep. Noem capped her national political aspirations like Old Yeller.
Correct. The people who are flipping out about this also don't understand that in rural South Dakota, you don't have your pick of animal shelters or vets to take the dog to. This isn't NYC we're talking about.
Are you going to waste a whole workday to drive 100 mi or more roundtrip to take the dog to the vet, just so the vet can kill it with a shot of pentobarbital, instead of you doing it with a shot of lead? Between the fuel, the lost time and the vet bill, we're talking way more than $500 here.
Do y'all think a farmer puts a sick cow that isn't going to make it in a truck and hauls it to the vet so the vet can euthanize it? Why is a dog different? Because you don't own a cow? Don't be silly.
Study up sometime on the chicken industry, and what they do with the 50% of chicks that are born male. Intact males of any species are hard to raise -- they fight viciously with each other -- and not as good to eat, and castrating a male chicken is a non-trivial surgical procedure. Hint: they don't take the male chicks to the vet to euthanize them. You won't view your chicken sandwich the same way again.
Too bad Trump or his team didn’t say anything about that when it was being pushed on the nation.

Trump’s not a physician, so like most everyone else when dealing with health issues he relies on physicians for advice regarding health issues. CHEAP SHOTS ARE SO OBVIOUS!
We lived on a ranch and had some chickens. Our Collie/German Shepard mix found out eggs were delicious and ate them joyfully right from under the laying hens. So my Dad got some very spicy hot pepper sauce and injected it into a bunch of eggs in the nests.
Cured Mickie from his keen taste for eggs. If he had had to put Mickie down, his 5 children would have had broken hearts.
You’re highly sensitive aren’t you?

Stupidity is very often linked to sensitivity, so no surprise there.
murdered? she killed a dog.
what’s next, demanding an autopsy?
Many years ago, we adopted a small dog from a no-kill shelter and we signed that if we had problems we would return him.
He bit my husband, snarled and growled at every male, almost bit my brother in law and went after my 4 year old nephew and I caught him just in time. I took him back to that shelter with a letter saying this dog bites and would especially be dangerous around small children. We told them verbally too.
We got a call a few months later asking if the bit anyone and that he had attacked several family members and a a child in his new family. I told them we made this clear and re-sent the original letter. He was euthanized after that I believe. It would have been better if we had taken care of things ourselves 🤷♀️
Anyway, I have had many inside dogs and livestock guardians and all are amazing and gentle. I likely wouldn’t have to have to shoot any dog attacking my chickens or goats because the pyrs would take care of them in short order, but I would shoot if I had to.
This dog didn't have a history of biting. It spun around as if to bite once.
Once a dog gets the bloodlust there’s not much you can do about it. Same with raiding chicken nests for eggs.

I had a relative whose dog would often bite her, but she was too stupid to get it put down. Oh, and it also bit others as well. Noem did the right thing, but revealing that incident makes me question her unthinking public revelation of it.
I’ve read the replies. I just disagree with you. This will be very damaging to her with voters whether you think it justified or not.
I would like her even more if she made slippers from cricket’s pelt.
She took swift care of a problem and didnt throw money away on " rehabilitation" for the dangerous dog..I hope she is as level headed about crime.
Lot’s of knee-jerk.....jerks reacting here....
Unless the story is untrue you are a heartless person. Do the right thing? It wasn’t a rabid animal. And the “working dog” angle is bullshit. You’re going to cling to the notion the lady’s livelihood was dependent on bird hunting? Ridiculous. You should be ashamed of yourself.
They seem to hate themselves to the point where they foul their own bodies in all manner of disgusting ways.
They treat their children, IF they decide to let them live, like pets. Their young minds become so screwed up that they spend their whole lives full of hate, drugs and discontent. Just like their parents..
Whenever faced with the problems of real live they always seek someone else to solve them..
I hear ya but there is no such thing. Admiral Stockdale is the closest we’ll ever cone to that and you know how that turned out.
Self esteem enhanced by expression of extreme conservative purity is destructive to all conservatism.
Kristi offers a few opportunities for expression of negative conservative purity. She is thus cast into the receptable of not good enough candidates.
Plus, she is a woman.
Ridiculous. This writer has too much time on his hands and thinks his opinion matters.
Well said, and I might add that a properly placed bullet is just as humane for putting down an animal as drugs and probably more so.
