So she shot a dog.
Politicians and dog experts are criticizing South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem after she wrote in a new book about killing a rambunctious puppy.

Believe it or not culling was forever and still is a functional farming skill. I know the link I provided says " not for dogs" but I think it's fairly relative.
I am floored by the reactions of those who have no problem with culling humans.... to this mundane account of something normal to a farm oriented culture.
I believe this activity goes on regularly in the Agri-belt with all types of animals for a variety of reasons.
Ultimately I wish she just brought the animal to a no kill shelter. But that's just me.
