It was a close call for a family in Abbotsford Wednesday morning as fire crews rushed to save a dog trapped inside a house fire.
When crews arrived to the home at Laburnum Avenue and Old Clayburn Road flames were shooting out of the roof.
Firefighters burst into the home to try and find the family dog.
Crews got him out just in time and immediately gave it oxygen.
The dog is expected to be OK but the damage to the home is extensive.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
“They were able to find the house pet,” said Abbotsford Deputy Fire Chief Jeff Adams. “The dog was brought out, the dog was unconscious when they brought him out. We were able to give him oxygen and revive him and he’s doing pretty well.”
The dog was also checked out by a vet.
