News about dog, Kristi Noem

Megyn Kelly picked apart South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem and her story of killing her 14-month-old puppy Cricket on Thursday.

Last week, the Guardian reported excerpts from Noem's upcoming memoir where she talks about killing her family's 14-month-old wirehaired pointer named Cricket. Noem wrote she determined the dog was “untrainable” after it ruined a pheasant hunt and later killed a neighbor's chicken.

In a new book, the governor claimed her 14-month-old pet was "untrainable." South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem is defending a controversial account she shares in a new book about killing her 14-month-old dog, Cricket, in an incident she said was decades ago.
