I really don't know much about the fence law in SC, though I've always had cows. I think in the late 1800's a fence law was passed which required people to fence in their livestock, which was objected to by small farmers and land renters who had been used to letting their livestock, especially hogs, run loose in the woods often on large plantation owners land. At this time there was no commercial cattle raising, just cotton and some corn. Hogs could roam the woods and fatten on chestnuts(now gone) and acorns. Obviously a problem when they got into a neighbors corn.
I've only rarely shared a fence with a neighbor and if we had cows get out we peacefully got the cows up and fixed the fence. A fence is not considered a boundary line and you don't get adverse possession just because your fence is over on your neighbor's land. For a fence to be your fence it has to be 6 inches over on your propery. AFIK nothing requires a non livestock owning person to put up a boundary fence.
