Dogs Found Alive In Remains Of Pennsylvania House Fire

A pair of family dogs were found inside the remains of a fire that destroyed a Pennsylvania house, one day after they had been feared dead.

Discovered in a second-floor room, completely unharmed and standing amongst the destruction around them, firefighters pulled them out of the home, on Bridle Path Lane in East Fallowfield, Sunday morning, following Saturday’s blaze.

“The dogs were fine – they were perfectly fine,” said East Fallowfield Police Chief Chris Porter in a brief interview Monday. “It’s a miracle.”

The fire, which was reportedly caused by smoking and ruled accidental, began at approximately 5 p.m. The family made it out without any injuries. However, the small dogs were nowhere to be found. The family and neighbors feared the worst.

“The next day, either the owners or the neighbors found the dogs,” said Porter. “They heard barking coming from the house. They contacted us, and we called the (Modena Fire Company).

“The house was totally gone,” he added. “It’s destroyed, but the dogs are fine.”
