Yah, dogs should be treated well. ♥
It can help to consider the reason why someone killed a dog though.
"Cricket was a wirehair pointer, about 14 months old...aggressive personality"...
....
....
By taking Cricket on a pheasant hunt with older dogs, Noem says, she hoped to calm the young dog down and begin to teach her how to behave. Unfortunately, Cricket ruined the hunt, going "out of her mind with excitement, chasing all those birds and having the time of her life".
Noem describes calling Cricket, then using an electronic collar to attempt to bring her under control. Nothing worked. Then, on the way home after the hunt, as Noem stopped to talk to a local family, Cricket escaped Noem’s truck and attacked the family’s chickens, “grabb[ing] one chicken at a time, crunching it to death with one bite, then dropping it to attack another".
Cricket the untrainable dog, Noem writes, behaved like "a trained assassin".
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".

Crazy dog Cricket was a case for César Millán. 🧙♂️🐕
Do you know what/who Wirehaired Pointers are?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_Wirehaired_Pointer
At 14 months Cricket was no longer a
"puppy".
An out-of-control Wirehaired is a killing machine on four legs.
Sooner or later Cricket would've killed a person, yah, a real
BITCH< (= female dog).
Well, what am I doing here...I don't want Trump to become POTUS again, that
BITCH.
According to you it's fine to use the term
BITCH in your
"American gay subculture".
So, Noem is a
BITCH, Trump is a
BITCH, all are
BITCHES!!!

You can take the Nazis out of Germany but you can't take the "Nazi" out of the Germans. No right minded American would kill a rambunctious dog. We don't do that here. There are plenty of alternatives.
Next thing you'll be asking for the death penalty on cats who kill mice and birds.
Bitch is a rather innocuous word in the U.S. On my forum we banned the word "c*nt" which most Americans find objectionable. But we had to unban it because of too many complaints from the Brits and Aussies. It's all relative.

"You can take the Nazis out of Germany but you can't take the "Nazi" out of the Germans."
Are you totally out of your mind now?! ☻
So, you wannabe dog expert...what would you do with a dog out of control?
Talk therapy with mediation?
I already suggested César Millán, but he's expensive and even he cannot help every dog.
Or waiting till the dog killed someone and then death penalty?
Btw. no one in our animal shelters is euthanized because they didn't find a new home quickly enough. In the USA many animal shelters still send perfectly healthy animals to the gas chamber.
And the USA still executes people, we don't.
Because the death penalty violates human rights!
"Next thing you'll be asking for the death penalty on cats who kill mice and birds."
Bullshit.
I know the nature of cats and never accused them of doing what's in their nature.
"Bitch is a rather innocuous word in the U.S. On my forum we banned the word "c*nt" which most Americans find objectionable. But we had to unban it because of too many complaints from the Brits and Aussies. It's all relative."
"Bitch" and "cunt" are both misogynistic hate speech.
You can argue about this as much as you want, that's a fact.
And which forum are you talking about?
Your Cave with around 10-15 users?
How many exactly complained? ... 3-4 real people?

I'll say right off I don't believe in animal rights. The best animals are food. We treat animals humanely. But if dogs have rights then cockroaches have rights. No way in hell.
But you don't just point a gun at a healthy pet's head and blow it off. The woman is sick. I'm not against euthanizing an animal as a last resort. But she admits she did it because she took a personal dislike to it. Bottom line, most Americans now see her as a callous bitch and her shot at a national career is over.
I oppose the death penalty because I'm an anarchist. But I would personally shoot some of these serial killers in the head if I had the opportunity.
Haha. Why are you taking pot shots at my forum? We started The Cave because we wanted a private forum with NO SOCKS and NO HATEFUL TROLLS.
And we're doing just fine. We actually have as many daily posters as fb right now. We just have lives and don't use socks and don't hang out there all day.

Yah, I know you think that all animals are just instinct-driven machines without souls. That was one of our first encounters here (Do animals have a soul?).
And now you play a dog rights activist, ridiculous.
Your "I oppose the death penalty because I'm an anarchist." is one of the stupidest jokes from you. Anarchists demand a peaceful world without state institutions and rules. And because these extreme leftists see themselves as the only goodies, they feel entitled to terrorize and murder everyone else in order to achieve their good goal.
True, that's not the death penalty.
These are just necessary murders for a better world, Mr. Bakunin.
You don't need SOCKS and HATEFUL TROLLS because that's how YOU act, Gameboy.
Of course you don't hang out there all day. As long as you're not in your little Cave or sleeping, you're busy polluting other sites.
So, back to the topic...the alleged german "Nazi" still wants to know:
What would you do with an out-of-control dog?
You claimed "there are plenty of alternatives".
And please remember in your 'expert' answer that we're talking about a Wirehaired Pointer and not a Chihuahua. 🐶

How the hell am I "HATEFUL" because I don't believe an unruly dog should be shot by a callous manipulative politician? WTF is wrong with you, woman?
By the way, I researched a little more, and this insufferable woman was training this poor dog to hunt pheasant. So it's rather obvious her lack of training skills is what propelled the dog to attack the chickens.
This was a female dog. In English a female dog is called a "bitch". But the real bitch here is Kristi Noem, not the dead dog.
Instead of trying to use this badly trained dog to hunt pheasant on a ranch, give her to a family with a nice backyard where she can play with a ball. Don't kill her.
Also, I'm an anarcho-syndicalist, not a bomb thrower. I want to abolish government and replace it with workers' syndicates.

That's not the reason you're HATEFUL.
Calling me a "Nazi" is wrong and hateful.
Constantly using the term "bitch" (misogynistic hate speech) is hateful.
And look above, I said first that a bitch is a female dog.
There was no need to explain that again. ☻
"I researched a little more, and this insufferable woman was training this poor dog to hunt pheasant."
There was no need for your 'research'.
The article above in my first reply already said that she trained the dog for hunting. A Wirehaired is a hound dog.
Do you know what a hound dog is?
"give her to a family with a nice backyard where she can play with a ball".
Great idea!...is that one of your "plenty of alternatives"? ☻ ☻
Children goulash in the backyard, hossa! 🩸🩸🩸

I did not call you a "Nazi". The stereotype of Germans is that they are a very orderly tough people. I merely said it doesn't surprise me that you would think nothing of killing an unruly dog. Kristi Noem is ethnically Norwegian and German by the way.
And I'm pointing out the irony that Noem acted like a "bitch" by killing a "bitch".
Nah, you don't kill a pet because it's confuses chickens with pheasants, especially after you're been teaching it to kill pheasants.
Here's a nice short video on unruly dogs:

The woman is a monster. And you have to understand her motivation on the American political scene for telling the story. She thought it would make her sound like a tough lady and get lots of publicity so she would be Trump's VP nominee.
She gambled and lost.
