Portland Coastguards tasked local coastguard rescue officers to help search for a missing dog in East Devon.
Just before 11.30am on Tuesday, Exmouth coastguards helped a tourist hunt for their dog that had run off and swum into the sea at Budleigh Salterton.
After a lengthy search the dog could not be found. He was later reunited with his owner after he was rescued from a beach down the coast.
