A dog is getting a second chance at life after it was rescued from the mouth of the Pawcatuck River Wednesday morning when the animal became trapped in a strong current while swimming off Watch Hill. Firefighters with the Westerly and Watch Hill fire departments each launched a rescue boat around 10 a.m. after reports from Grays Boat Yard in Watch Hill of a dog in distress in the Pawcatuck River. The two boats continued to Osbrook Point in Pawcatuck, where Westerly firefighters used their smaller boat to navigate through rocky waters and bring the dog aboard. "All went as well as we could have hoped for. Both boats worked together well, and we were able to locate and get the dog out of the water and onto our boat pretty quickly," said Westerly Fire Chief John Mackay.
