From the Guardian article:

Then, on the way home after the hunt, as Noem stopped to talk to a local family, Cricket escaped Noem’s truck and attacked the family’s chickens

She had been using the dog to hunt pheasants earlier that day. You really can’t be pissed at a 14-month old dog (still a puppy at that age) for not knowing the difference between pheasants and chickens.

All this does is demonstrate that she’s a terrible pet owner and a shitty person.
