Politicians and dog experts alike are vilifying South Dakota Gov.

Kristi Noem after she wrote in a new book about killing a rambunctious puppy, with the reaction bringing questions about whether she is still a viable potential running mate for presumptive Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump. Experts who work with hunting dogs like Noem’s said she should have trained — not killed — the pup, or found other options if the dog was out of control.

Noem's spokesperson didn't immediately respond to questions from The Associated Press about whether the dog actually bit her or just tried to do so, or whether Noem had to seek medical treatment. The book's publisher declined to provide AP an advance copy of the book. Afterward, Noem wrote, she led Cricket to a gravel pit and killed her. She said she also shot a goat that the family owned, saying it was mean and liked to chase her kids.
