It’s a nice change of pace to go on vacation and read charming stories in the local paper such as this: Dog gone … found two miles out to sea. Block Island resident Boo Boo, a 3-year-old Staffordshire terrier who enjoys chasing sea gulls into the waves, was caught in a rip tide and disappeared. She was discovered two miles offshore, despite dense fog, by a surprised fisherman. She had been doggie paddling for about an hour and a half. Boo Boo has been reunited with her owner, a jewelry designer who is now making her pet a tag in the event of future escapades.
