It would also compel sheriffs to supply the registry to newspapers. The bill passed both chambers and could make South Carolina the 36th state with active notifications.

Hero dog Joe seeks new home after fire rescue
Anderson Dalmatian mix Joe saved owner Leta Thomson, 79, in a Augusta Georgia kitchen fire and later became homeless. Shelter supervisor Myrna McCrary says Joe is healthy but best suited for an adult home, not a family with small children, and notes he slept in Thomson's bed. More than 200 people called to adopt.
