JACKSONVILLE BEACH, Fla. — A Florida bill inspired by the death of a Putnam County postal worker is now awaiting the governor's signature after unanimously passing through the state senate. The bill, HB 593, has been called the "dangerous dog" bill. Back in 2022, Pamela Rock was attacked by five dogs in Putnam County. The 61-year-old died from her injuries. The bill aims to strengthen regulations on dangerous dogs and increase the accountability of their owners.
