Do you also shoot misbehaved dogs like Krist Knoem does? #SICK
One of Donald Trump's potential running mates is facing criticism for sharing a story in her memoir about how she killed her dog.
Kristi Noem, 52, the governor of South Dakota, wrote in her soon-to-be released memoir that the dog, Cricket, was "untrainable" and "dangerous".
After deciding she needed to be put down, Ms Noem led the dog to a gravel pit and shot her.
"It was not a pleasant job," she wrote. "But it had to be done."
The memoir, titled No Going Back: The Truth on What's Wrong with Politics and How We Move America Forward, is due for release on 7 May, though an excerpt was obtained by The Guardian. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-68909801
