S. Carolina- Include Hunting Dogs in Animal Welfare Law

In South Carolina, dogs that are classified as hunting dogs do not get the same protection under the law. Hunting dogs are exempt laws that protect other dogs, because hunting dogs, (or dogs that hunt), are used and considered a utilty.

South Carolina allows abandonment of hunting dogs, and deprivation of the necessities of life, such as food, water and shelter.
