Potential Trump VP pick Gov. Kristi Noem says she shot dead a ‘less than worthless’ dog, ‘disgusting’ goat​

Published April 26, 2024, 2:24 p.m. ET

South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem, who is widely tipped to be former President Donald Trump’s likely pick as running mate, has admitted shooting dead one of her dogs for being “less than worthless” — and similarly killing a goat she found “disgusting.”


The 52-year-old Republican detailed the killings in an upcoming memoir as proof she is willing to do “difficult, messy and ugly” things when needed, according to the Guardian, which obtained an advance copy.


“Cricket was a wirehair pointer, about 14 months old,” she said of the soon-to-be-shot pup with an “aggressive personality” that made her “untrainable.”

South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem, who is widely tipped to be former President Donald Trump’s likely pick as running mate, has admitted shooting dead one of her dogs for being “less than worthless” — and similarly killing a goat she found “disgusting.”


The 52-year-old Republican detailed the killings in an upcoming memoir as proof she is willing to do “difficult, messy and ugly” things when needed, according to the Guardian, which obtained an advance copy.


“Cricket was a wirehair pointer, about 14 months old,” she said of the soon-to-be-shot pup with an “aggressive personality” that made her “untrainable.”

Noem took Cricket on a hunt to learn from other dogs — but she instead ruined the hunt by going “out of her mind with excitement” and attacking some chickens like a “trained assassin,” Noem wrote.

When Noem tried to grab the dog, it “whipped around to bite me,” she wrote.

“I hated that dog,” Noem continued, calling Cricket “dangerous to anyone she came in contact with” and “less than worthless … as a hunting dog.”



“At that moment, I realized I had to put her down.”

Noem, who also represented her state in Congress for eight years, explained that she then got her gun and led Cricket to a gravel pit.


“It was not a pleasant job,” she said, “but it had to be done.”


She recalled how her daughter, Kennedy “looked around confused” when she came home from school that day, asking: “Hey, where’s Cricket?”

The report did not say exactly when Cricket was killed. But it was not the only animal the politician writes about shooting dead.


Noem also detailed how she killed a “nasty and mean” male goat because it had not been castrated.


She described the animal as smelling “disgusting, musky, rancid” and claimed it “loved to chase” Noem’s children and knock them down.

The goat was also “dragged to a gravel pit,” but jumped when she pulled the trigger, and subsequently survived the wound. Noem went back to her truck to retrieve another shell, then “hurried back to the gravel pit and put him down,” she wrote.


“I guess if I were a better politician I wouldn’t tell the story here,” she concluded the story.


A construction crew witnessed her kill both animals, she said in the book, “No Going Back: The Truth on What’s Wrong with Politics and How We Move America Forward,” which is due to be published next month.

Noem — whom Trump has said is on his shortlist to run as Vice President — addressed the report Friday while plugging the upcoming book.

“We love animals, but tough decisions like this happen all the time on a farm,” she wrote on X alongside a screenshot of the Guardian article. Sadly, we just had to put down 3 horses a few weeks ago that had been in our family for 25 years.

"If you want more real, honest, and politically INcorrect stories that’ll have the media gasping, preorder ‘No Going Back,'” she wrote along with a link.

Yeah and you know how much that shit costs?

Sadly, I know very well how much it costs.

But they deserved a painless and peaceful end.

Wirehairs are very stubborn bitches. They are also clever and quite capable of getting into all kinds of messes. This is common knowledge about the breed. Sounds like she didn't properly secure her chickens or train her dog. Does she want a cookie for solving a problem of her own making?

She killed a dog who killed a coop full of chickens while people screamed at it to stop and then turned to bite humans who were stopping it. Good riddance. Oh no muh cruelty to animals. If a dog is a menace, it gets shot. "Oh, she should have had a vet do it." Yeah ok.

dogs are menaces. they are senselessly violent and loud like niggers but when you say this, everyone loses their minds. muh heckin doggo.
this is the true red pill

 

[Foltest]

She is a stupid cunt.
Pointers are not stupid dogs and take a lot of work to get them to follow orders.
When you have a well trained one, they are amazing (why do you think so many hunters use them?).
That she gave up after 14 months and shot the dog in a fucking gravel pit (two shots as well!) shows how big of a cunt she is.

 

[geckogoy]

I've shot coyotes before to keep them out of our semi-rural neighborhood but I've never felt good about it. I'd also never write about how I did it

Anyways thanks for the update on how you felt bad so its okey

This is all cope and seethe created from journos writing an article poorly, and a woman who is dumb enough to recall the event in a memoir. A daily reminder that you don't hate journos nearly enough.

All the retards just hear the "I killed a dog..." part, and completely ignore all context as to why.

Noem SHOULD HAVE HAD someone smart enough to tell her "Yeah, we're gonna leave that out because people are retarded."

A man would have taken care of the dog, and then thought nothing of it, which is what you do when you have a working animal who refuses commands and is a danger to livestock (chickens are considered livestock for legal purposes, not pets) AND people. Noem pretty much just skipped the likely process of Animal Control coming out, taking her dog, issuing a ticket, and then dropping the body back off after it had been disposed of at the local pound.

I feel like the disconnect here is that MOST people who have "hunting dogs" also have the dogs pull double duty as the family pet, because they're not psychopathic, and just "giving up" on a "worthless dog" is just not what you do to a "family pet" or something that could be viewed as such.

Here's a question nobody likes to answer: What do you think happens to all of those "working" German Sheppards that the Police and Military use when the dogs are no longer physically fit for service?

Around here, they retire and their handlers keep them. But this is a rural place

Getting shot point blank in the head with a 12 gauge is as painless as it gets.

That covers the few handlers who are willing to do so, but what about the ones who don't or can't?

 

[Grand Wizard Wakka]

yeah i shoot puppies, cry about it LIBRULS!!!​

If it was a puppy or anything innocent and helpless, liberals would be celebrating.

Liberals only get upset when something feral and dangerous is killed, like a 2am jogger beating an old asian lady to death and then shooting at the cops when they arrived because he needed to rob her store "for school supplies" or whatever his single crack whore mother claims. "Why dey shot him for dat!?"

The dog couldnt be controlled and was attacking and killing things, and was trying to attack humans.

 

[OrionBalls]

"When a dog is retired out, it is usually because of injury or sickness and the best person to care for the puppy is the handler. More than 90% of these good dogs get adopted by their handler."

A 12 gauge has been used to put down animals for generations out on the farms. Its quick and its efficient and it doesnt leave them in pain for longer than a split second if done right.
You want to talk about cruel shit done to animals I knew an old dude that threw burlap sacks of kittens into the river unironically rather than get his mice hunters spayed/neutered.
I will admit bragging about it is fucking weird though. Lady, you didn't do anything worth of note one way or the other, you did a chore. Did you write about all the time you did the laundry too?

Euthanasia costs less than a spay. Costs less than a year of heartworm meds. Costs about the same as a round of puppy vaccines and dewormer.

If you can't afford to humanely put an animal down, you can't afford the animal.

Working dogs get to retire and live a peaceful life you fucking retard.

In fact, in most jurisdictions, if a police dog dies, it gets a full homicide investigation.

 

[FierceBrosnan]

Six of one, half dozen of another. This bitch sounds a teeny bit sociopathic and making her VP would be bad optics. On the other hand if she's willing to put a bullet in something that was dangerous and attacking other animals and people.. we could use some some of that these days.

They get official funerals with bagpipes. I've seen one- family member was a K9 handler.

And my 19th century farmer grandfather took more care in dispatching actually useless livestock than the faux hardasses in this thread are talking about someone using on a child's pet. In fact it's a tell to me- the more needlessly cruel and hardass someone is in their approach to animals, the more likely it is they have soft faggy loafer-wearing feet.

The Amish are notoriously inhumane to the animals they raise. I'd hardly call them loafer-wearing fags. But then, animals are simply the means to an end, for them.

 

[GratsTheat783]

Once when my mother had taken my dog to the vet, she overheard a farmer at the counter asking to get his dog put down because it was unsuitable to be a farm dog. Putting it down was also cheaper than getting the dog spayed.
In my last workplace, there was some old guy there who I was told shot a dog. a golden retriever I think, because it was disobedient. I also heard he abused his wife. Those could've just been rumours, but my Dad insisted it happened.
My Dad told me that he knew a guy on Shetland who killed a dog. It wasn't suited to be a farm dog and every time he'd try to rehome it, it would be returned since it was too wild to be cared for.

my buddy's grandpa is a vet and did house calls to the amish in this area. He said there were dying animals just laying around everywhere and nobody cared. not livestock but stuff like cats and dogs. I wouldnt even let my chickens die like that.

theyre constantly drunk driving those horses too

As quaint as they may be in other ways, at root the Amish are a weird cult, not normal people who just happen to enjoy a rural lifestyle and religious devotions. Always have been, always will be. They're just one of the more persistent and successful weird cults. I'd put hasidic Jews in the same category.

Anyhow it's such a womany thing to brag about something like this and expect everyone to cheer about how strong and tough you are.

What does the Military do with their working dogs?
Hint: Its the same thing the Taliban did to the ones who were abandoned....
