Ms Noem defined that her canine remained uncontrollable regardless of present process months of coaching.
The Governor of South Dakota, Kristi Noem, recommended on Sunday that President Joe Biden’s canine, Commander, ought to face an analogous consequence as her personal 14-month-old canine, Cricket. In her forthcoming memoir, Ms. Noem disclosed that she needed to shoot Cricket resulting from its aggressive behaviour.
On Sunday, the Republican vice-presidential hopeful appeared on CBS’ “Face The Nation” and requested Americans to “make a choice between your children or a dangerous animal”.
Talking about President Biden’s canine, Ms Noem stated, “Well, number one, Joe Biden’s dog has attacked 24 Secret Service people. So how many people are enough people to be attacked and dangerously hurt before you make a decision on a dog? And –That’s the question that the President should be held accountable to.”
Last yr in October, the Biden administration introduced that the dog had been relocated off White House grounds after incidents of it attacking and biting U.S. Secret Service brokers.
As per a CNN report, Kristi Noem outlined her day one priorities in her e book “No Going Back,” stating that if she had been president she would be certain that Commander “was nowhere on the grounds.”
The report quoted her as saying within the e book, “What would I do if I was president on the first day in office in 2025? Thanks for asking. I happen to have a list. The first thing I’d do is make sure Joe Biden’s dog was nowhere on the grounds (‘Commander, say hello to Cricket for me’). But my dog, Foster, would sure be welcome. He comes with me to the capitol all the time and loves everyone.”
While defending her actions of killing her 14-month-old canine Cricket, Ms Noem in the identical CBS interview stated, “This was a dangerous animal that was killing livestock and attacking people. And- and I had little children at the time, our operation had many kids running around and people in interaction with the public. And I made a difficult choice. I think you’re a mother too. And you have little kiddos, would you make a choice between your children or a dangerous animal?”
She continued, “And I think I would ask everybody in the country to put themselves in that situation. Because that’s what I faced and I talk about it because what I’m tired of in this country is politicians who pretend to be something that they’re not. That they aren’t willing to have the hard conversations and look at the past and the tough decisions that they’ve made. I’m- what I talk about in the book extensively when people are able to get it on Tuesday is to see the whole story and the truth, not the spin that the media has put on this story. The media has put some or removed most of the facts and the reason this is in there is because I want people to know that I don’t ask anybody else to take on my responsibilities. I understood my responsibility. As a mom, I made a choice between protecting my children and protecting them from a dangerous animal that was killing livestock and attacking people. And that’s a decision that I made—“
Ms Noem further explained that her dog remained uncontrollable despite undergoing months of training.
She added, “This dog was well, this dog was a working dog. And it had come from a family that already had issues with this dog. And I had put months and months of training into this dog. This dog had gone to other trainers as well. So -so all of that is the facts of the story. All of that shows that when you put someone in a position where they have to make a decision, and they want to protect their family and protect children and other people from getting attacked by an animal that has attacked others and killed livestock, that’s the choice I made over 20 years ago. And that I didn’t ask somebody else to take that responsibility for me, that I had to make that decision myself.”
