To the Editor:
Last Thursday evening around 5 p.m. I received a phone call that our 8-month-old dog had gotten out while my boyfriend was surfing. Stanley is a very sweet but very skittish rescue from Puerto Rico. He ran 20 or so streets away and jumped into the Ship Bottom bay while the police department, fire company and Ship Bottom residents worked to try and get him back safely.
Stanley had been swimming out in deep water for roughly 30 minutes and was nearing exhaustion and drowning.
