LAUREL, Miss. -- Officials say a family dog recently came home with more than a bone or toy to play fetch -- the pup had a big bag of marijuana. The Jones County, Mississippi, Sheriff's Department said in a statement the homeowner told deputies when his dog came home with the bag, he initially thought it was garbage. But he inspected it and found it contained a leafy substance that smelled like marijuana. How or where the dog got the bag was not known.
