“Don’t shoot the dog” is a great book that apparently Kristi never read.

Conservatives kill dogs
Liberals kill babies

Which is worse?

So…did she shoot the dog?

Yes, by her own writings.

But was it some peaceful golden retriever that she just unloaded a clip into?

Hardly.

But that’s the image the Legacy Media hopes you have in your head.

Cricket was her dog.
She was responsible for her training.
She failed to train him properly.
Rather then retrain the dog or rehome it.
She decided to shoot it.
She also decided to shoot. A goat that bothered her two.

She openly states in her book she hated cricket.

She was using it as an example of how she handles politics.

I don’t want a politician that will start shooting everything that bothers her because she can’t handle the situation.

The fact you vehemently will defend this behavior because Trump endorsed her says a lot about the right and confirms our gravest fears.

It was a danger to PEOPLE... it was UNTRAINABLE...

You on the other hand have ZERO knowledge of the dog...

Just the warped picture liberal media painted for you.

Kristi claimed it was untrainable. That does not make it so.
That is what we call a lie.
No such thing as an untrainable dog just bad human trainers.

You on the other hand have ZERO knowledge of the dog...

And she was within her rights to do what she did... The law said so.

I have plenty of knowledge on the dog thanks to Kristi WRITING A PART OF HER BOOK ON IT.

Actually depending on local ordinances no she didn’t. There are laws and regulations against animal cruelty on how you put down your pet. They arnt always enforced well but they do exist.

Ex: i technically couldn’t put my Guinea pig with ovarian cancer on my own using co2.
But because I’d contacted every exotic vet within range of caring for my guinea pig and denied care because of no availability I then had legal permission to put her down.

Had I failed to do so I could have been fined or faced prison time.

You NEVER met the dog...

Neither have you.
Thankfully we can go off Kristi’s writings…
She was awful trainer and when things got tough killed her dog and another animal that had nothing to do with the bite.

I'm not the one judging her actions... please continue your deflection.

Remember when unnecessary killing puppies would be considered a bad thing in politics? Not something that should be defended.

Because everybody else has plenty of knowledge about the dog?

Wow, killing comes ideology-coded?

But let's see, people killing babies that they don't want and who would most likely be even less wanted parents for,
or killing a slave animal that would actually run into a burning building and die for you without hesitation.

Slave animal never committed original sin,
and having unwanted babies is a sin.

'Tis a difficult choice.

Any other murder options?

1.) Not what I said. I said conservatives are cool with it.
2.) false equivalency from abortion. And bold of you to assume I don’t treat my pets like they are my child. I spent 2 grand trying to save the life of my 2 year old guinea pig with brain cancer. And on top of that it’s a lie dems arnt killing babies. I still cry on the day my dog died from adrenal cancer.

Every dog and cat that is not wanted should be dispised of with prejudice.

Anyone that's wants to care for a cat or a dog is responsible for it's upkeep and ultimately for it's actions.

Animals that are out of control need put down.

And she is the reason it was out of control.

She failed to train the dog.
She can’t handle a dog but she wants to be VP.
Don’t get me wrong vp is a pretty empty role but it is a huge responsibility.

Gee... based on that logic, Biden shouldn't be President either...

Honestly I didn’t like Biden adopting commander and I was worried it was a or stunt that was gonna backfire because German Shepard require a lot of discipline and most importantly a job to keep them on point and happy.

And also high for the thousandth time progressive I don’t worship Biden and would happily take a more qualified candidate.
Unfortunately the other option is Trump and rfk who are even more unqualified than him.

And I only say he’s unqualified because of his foreign policy regarding the gaza genocide.
Domestically he’s being doing okay…
Could be a lot better but it’s been …okay?…mediocre let’s go with that.

Honestly, you're just spewing the lib media Trump hate message...going with their current gotcha hit piece. Your 'oh the poor dog, it should have been given to another family reeks...' What you're saying is even if the dog is a danger to humans, it's ok to pass on that danger to someone else...

Just so you can argue... Pathetic...

No what I’m saying is that AND Kristi noem is the reason it was out of control to begin with.

An out of control dog with rabies is no…well actually if it had rabies it’d still be her fault because she didn’t get it vaccinated…

I say the poor dog because I’ve raised several animals and treated them with the respect I’d show my family and dignity that they deserve in my care.

Even now I just gave 40 dollar medicine to a guinea pig that’s 6 to deal with her severe arthritis. Despite the fact I could buy a whole new pig for that same price.

Because I’m not a monster like noem.

Yes I hate Trump because he’s earned that hatred. His actions led to my quality of life being worse, his immorality when it comes just showing basic empathy make him uniqualified to be president of his fellow citizens because you need empathy to be able to represent those who didnt vote for you.

And that’s not even accounting for foreign affairs where you need empathy to deal with other nations and come to peaceful terms…though on that front biden isnt doing much better but our foreign policy has been a nightmare long before even Reagan.

false... again..

She not only confessed to it, she published that she hated it, and got your candidate to endorse it!

Sure...because only rightist Maga people harm or murder animals. It's never leftists or unstable illegal immigrants

“[Cricket] grabbed one chicken at a time, crunching it to death with one bite, then dropping it to attack another,” she wrote, comparing the dog to “a trained assassin.”

“[She] whipped around to bite me,” Noem wrote, adding that Cricket was “the picture of pure joy” throughout the incident.

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

And like any normal mom, her first thought was protecting her kids.

Her dog her inability to train he failure

I agree, it definitely needed put down and she probably made the cost of her neighbor's chickens good.

“She probably made the cost of her neighbors chickens good.” Receipts or it didn’t happen.

No it didn’t it needed a better owner that knew what they were doing.

She tried to grab it while it was doing what it was trained to do which is kill animals.
What happened was basic redirection of aggression.

There are several books and online sources on both how to avoid redirection, and behavior correct overt agression.

I’m not saying it’s easy but it’s hardly the Herculean task the right is making it out to be.
This was a puppy she raised not some rescue that spend half its life in dog fighting.

Wrong...

Then whose dog was it?

Buffalo shooter was a raging racist spouting Great replacement theory. His manifesto he writes he is a self declared ethno-nationalist and supported white supremacy.

He was absolutely far right.

As for uvalde the shooter there seemed to be doing it for revenge after being bullied in school and one former girlfriend believed he’d been a rape victim.
His shooting wasn’t political.

Neither one of these involved the left.
And yes animal abuse is a sign of a serial killer or severe mental issues.

True. PETA is probably the best example of that and no one likes them even on the left.

The dog was put down because it attacked neighborly farm chickens and bit her.

Why are all of you who post on this incident leaving these details out of your posts?
Perhaps it's because you are ALL well aware of the harsh realities of farm life and choose to discard it to attack and discredit your political opponents.

Typical.

I had a neighbor who had a German shepherd. That dog followed his every command, and movement.
You would swear it was trained exceptionally well. During the day when he was at work, his teenage daughter took it for walks after school along with her girlfriend who walked her Corgi. Lots of time... No problems... The dogs got along great... and then one day, the shepherd snapped and killed the corgi.
When the neighbor got home he immediately loaded the dog in the car and drove it to the vet to have it put down. Becuase that's what responsible people do.

She failed to train the dog properly.
Had she done the job right the dog wouldn’t have done that.

Retraining is also possible (but harder when they get older.) or the very least she could make accommodations that would prevent another incident after giving restitutions to the chicken owners.

Again you absolutely have no idea about farm life.
If the dog is a threat to livestock and anyone else especially neighboring farms...it is code to put the animal down.

Contrary to your belief of modern day moral...the dog is a farm worker before pet and that farm is a business. If the dog is jeopardizing farm business and especially neighboring farm business, the animal is put down.

Needless to say, if the dog is a threat to humans... they put it down.
Guess libs don't care about keeping children safe...

PERFECTION !

Libs bought the lie... "We place him on a farm"

... where he immediately ripped 38 chickens to shreds. 😂

Placing the dog on a farm is code for putting it down...

Pro dogs...not pro life.
That and guns are too inhumane...they sure do love jabbing with needles and hangers though.

I'll bet the next thing they'll be advocating for is finding new homes for dogs with rabies...

😆

Again she trained the dog.
She didn’t teach it how to act properly.
It is her failure.

So you wanted her to choose the dog over her kids?

Figures

She didn’t have too if she’d done her job as a dog owner and trained the damn dog.

Yes... you already implied you didn't care about the safety of her kids...

Her kids weren’t even on the property at the time of the incident.

She didn’t protect anyone. She slaughtered an animal she failed.

It is great to slaughter vicious animals.

Are you vegan?

And pray tell how was the goat viscous? Did they coordinate with fauci to slaughter the chickens in order to sacrifice themselves to make noem look bad after activating her 5g chip from the vaccine to write a book on her decision?

Or did she just get fed up and kill a dog she stated she hated in the book.

Yeah my grandma lived on a farm…she trained the dog properly and when it wasn’t a good fit early on in training she’d rehome it so it could live a good life.

Lol...I love how you have a personal story of virtue in relation to all these liberal posts.

I've said it once and I'll say it again, you really do live a rather adventurous life with tons of overshadowing liberal virtue...amazing how you find all this time to share your tales of humble virtue and boast online with all of us.

Lmao

And he had a relative eaten by cannabis.

TRUE STORY!

Not gonna lie I could totally see Fox News running that on their ticker when they fear monger about weed.

You either don't know current events or a leftist with no sense of humor.

As Foghorn Leghorn would say "It's a joke son!"

I know what you meant but read your typo it says cannabis not cannibals.

That was the joke...

Duh.

No, because you have CTDTDS.

Chronic, Terminal, Delusional TRUMP Derangement Syndrome.

Then I’m confused I saw the joke and trotted that it would fit on a Fox News ticker…because they would.

Granny didn't want the kids to be upset... but rehome sounds like putting the dog down.

When Granny liberal isn't re homing unfit farm dogs in the town...she probably logs on imgflip too...throw a few anti conservative memes around while in-between cow milking sessions.

This is why I urge people to NEVER delete their accounts. EVER.
When the grandkids or whomever ask what MemeMemeMemer did these days, they need to know.

The cringe, it must survive for the sake of future generations to learn from. There must be a purpose, a reason, a justification - something to salvage from the sheer bile regurgitating embarrassment these years have been.

For anyone who ever thought that having had owned Earth Shoes and an extensive collection of Leif Garrett records was bad, well this makes Danny Bonaduce''s adulthood look - dare say I - cool.

Lol...well I'm done with arguing with people who deliberately leave out certain facts of a story to demonize their political opponents.

I have family with personal experiences that had to put a dog down because it chewed up the neighbors kids hand under the fence. He didn't train the dog to do it nor did he improperly train the dog. But he did understand to take the responsibility as a child protecting father himself...the dog must be put down.

I see what you did there.

He said it better, obviously a little more versed on dogs on the farm than me:

imgflip.com/i/8o61hc#com31215781

Any parent who wants to protect their kids would.

But it's alright to demonize those not supporting those so-called political opponents?

How is making disparaging remarks about someone and their grandmother somehow better than criticizing some elitist entitled big shot no one outside of Nowhere County, Flyover State, USA ever heard of? Why are people rallying in defensive of this person without knowing said facts, their history, their motivation? Why did that person not notice that Muffy was so out of control all these years, or was it really just having a bad day, doggie PMSing perhaps?

People shouldn't keep dogs. All dogs, all people. No no slave animals, or pets, as we like to call those things we cage because we love them soooooooo muchy wuchy. And if that's still going to be a thing, and people are incapable of training and controlling said pet slaves, then perhaps they should get a less difficult hobby and find something else to abuse and shoot when they're in a bad mood.

We live in a self indulgent society where even living creatures - including family - are treated like disposable single-use plastic items. What ever happened to parents that told their kids if they can't play with their toys right, they can't keep them? This whomever that no one heard of till yesterday should have ALL her slave animals AND her glorious twaditional farm hobby thingy taken away (isn't she in politics anyways? Time to sell the joint like all her neighbors and let it get developed into tract housing) and be sent to the dunce corner till she learns that discipline is a thing, not an excuse to fill her ADHD kids with Hot Pockets and wonder why they're so fat and lazy.

Not that it matters with the hordes of REAL farmers crossing the border so the 'farmer' family could drive their John Deere SUV to the Walmart to take selfies of their cartload of items Biden jacked the price on so the Deep State can assure his win in November *winks in sarcasm*

It may come as a surprise, but a cpl of generations ago, well, maybe three, 90% of Americans were farmers. Yes, that might even include the OP's grandparents. The ones still doing it are the ones who couldn't make it off the farm, as the droves of next gen fleeing indicates. And this dog shooting Karen is in POLITICS as well?

Good grief, it's like the USA has gone full tilt trying to prove the rest of the world right about us since 2016 with this roided up methed up clown show. I don't need to fill you in on the stereotypes about us, do I?

You are correct in alot of points and I respect your.comment.

But...I'm all for the disparaging back and forth remarks. It memes alot to me!

Are you kidding me…she was a Jehovah’s Witness… she was raising her 3 kids on her own because military dad didn’t like the cult she’d joined.

With what she didn’t own a gun…and I saw the photos of it on the neighbors farm who wanted a hunting dog.

Not everything but I’ve had a pretty full and exciting life in my travels all over the U.S.

But no it’s not about the virtue there is a clear and obvious alternative solution to shooting a dog that you can’t handle.

When my dog was passing on from cancer I tried to adopt a Belgian malinois that was a rescue. He seemed perfect and my dog got along great and the shelter didn’t mention any issues… until I got home and he snapped on my wife over resource guarding issues…so clearly he was starved at some point.

Did I shoot him for snapping at my wife…
No I grabbed him by his back legs and emptied a jug of water on his head to confuse him then returned him noting he had a resource guarding issue.

I couldn’t adopt again for 3 years but I couldn’t risk him snapping on my dog when I wasn’t home.

Last I heard he found a nice farm family where he’s helping raise alpaca. He got what he needed my dog got a safe home I just didn’t get another dog I wanted right away. A small price for them both to have a good life.

What if he had mauled or killed her?

She waited until after the incident and took it too a gravel pit to shoot the dog…she then also shot a goat she was tired of as her son was coming home from school.

So no it wasn’t in the moment deal she had time she thought it out.

Now if it had rabies then by all means I’ve had to put down 3 pets before but it was all for pain relief. One had a brain tumor forcing the eye out of her socket, another had inoperable ovarian cancer and lived for 2 years before she’d lost so much weight and was in such pain I was forced to gas her with a home made kit because no vet with proper training. Was available in Halloween. (Guinea pigs.)
Then there was my dog with an inoperable adrenal cancer located along a vital artery.
In fact was a vet series probe I made that found it…

When the tumor finally ruptured it caused him to hemmorage and while he was stabilized prognosis was 2 days…I got him some ham and cheese from subway, paid extra for the pain killers, and cried in horror as he twitched and convulsed from the ending his pain…
I didn’t eat… I cried…and often drank after.

She killed an animal she failed then moved on to the next one because she couldn’t handle it.

Any rational person would not have made those pets live in pain for years.

You are a monster!

I gave them medicine and pain killers daily.

It was only when I’d known they’d given up too I let them go. For some it was quick I tried treat the eye issue one’s problems for two days until we found out it was a tumor.

The one with ovarian cancer was the happiest (and loudest.) Guinea pig I’d ever own. I miss her bubbly personality and apparently so does the herd. It’s so much quieter without her. she passed on high as a kite, swaddled in fine cloth surrounded by food. Every pigs dream.

As for my dog he just needed medicine too. Had it been operable I’d have gotten it treated so I did what I could to buy him a whole nother year of life. I did not force him to go on for two more days I left him go.

Monsterous!

So you think she should have killed it before it became a murderer, pre-crime?

No not at all and you know that.
I’m saying she didn’t kill it in self defense when it redirected at the bit victim she had enough time to think about it.

Which is probably more thought then she put into crickets training.

Your virtue signaling is not being received by anyone. Your TDS is evident to all.

I am out. You are an implacable, self-righteous, anti...

Apparently we are the stage where not being a bad dog owner is woke virtue signaling.

Oh you meant my wife…we’re both well versed at dog training and we were on guard looking for issues.

Were his issues that severe I would have sued the living daylights out of the adoption group as they said he had zero issues. And snapping is not the same as attacking.
He didn’t leap forward to attack my wife he just tried to bite.

A responsible dog owner knows the difference. He needed help and discipline that I couldn’t offer at the time. Had my dog already passed on we both could have corrected the behavior (though resource guarding is a bitch to untrain.)
