A pet owner who “feared the worst” when her frightened dog ran into the sea has described the rescue as like something from a movie. Seren, a three-year-old golden retriever, was found 300 metres from the shore off Newton Beach, in Porthcawl, by an RNLI lifeboat crew after getting spooked by the sound of a car boot closing on Saturday. Her owners, Andrea Phillips and her partner Richard – who had rescued Seren just five weeks earlier, “feared the worst” as she swam into the sea and disappeared out of sight. But Ms Phillips said the sight of the RNLI crew wading out of the water carrying her dog to safety was like something from a movie. Ms Phillips said: “I’ve rescued many dogs in my time, but Seren is definitely the most traumatised. “She had just been getting comfortable with her regular beach walks. On Saturday we were planning to go out with her and had carefully placed her in the car boot when she seemed calm. “As we clicked the key to close the car boot we think the noise must have spooked her because she leapt out and immediately was running across the dunes and down onto the beach.” Unable to catch up with Seren, another dog walker tried to help get hold of her, but she was so scared she ran into the sea. The dog walker then shouted for Ms Phillips to call the Coastguard. “The person on the phone was brilliant at keeping me calm, but I was losing faith as we could no longer see Seren she’d swum so far out and I feared the worst,” Ms Phillips said. HM Coastguard requested Porthcawl RNLI to launch their Atlantic 85 lifeboat Rose of the Shires. The crew, on their first rescue of the year, instantly located an exhausted Seren around 300m from the shore near Newton Point as she was being swept further and further out to sea by the tidal current
