Miranda Devine — Kristi Noem just blew her chance at the VP slot.

The story comes from Noem’s upcoming memoir, “No Going Back,” in which she says she took her female German wirehaired pointer “Cricket” to a gravel pit on her farm and shot it dead for being “less than worthless,” according to The Guardian.

The dog’s crimes for which it needed to be executed? Cricket ruined a hunting trip by chasing birds and “having the time of her life,” and then on the way home, attacked a local family’s chickens.

Noem also boasted in the book that, after killing the dog, she took the family goat to the same gravel pit and shot it because it was “nasty and mean” and smelled “disgusting, musky, rancid.”

Sure, it’s a fact of life on farms and ranches that animals will have to be put down, but to do so in anger, as Noem apparently did, is appalling. The dog was young, and she had failed to train it properly or keep it under control.
