From article~ “Adding to the curiosity were items like a gas container, a cooler, gym bag and life jacket neatly placed on the beach near the boat. The boat motor also had been raised and water was found in the boat.”
So the obvious thought was apparently that he must have fallen overboard and that the dog beached the boat, raised the motor and put his stuff neatly on the beach?
I’m glad had happy ending and nobody was hurt, including rescue workers but what was somebody thinking?

LOL…no diggity…I can’t get this Disney movie scene outta my head…picturing the dog sitting up and steering boat to shore, raising the prop out of water, putting all the stuff on beach..
Actually, the dog WAS smart enough to go back to the boat but his owner wasn’t, and was running around downtown..WTH?
I certainly hope everyone realizes the embarrasment and silliness of their oversight and doesn’t try to charge the owner for the rescue effort costs!
