Dogs rescued following Fleet house fire in the early hours

Three dogs were rescued from a Fleet home following a house fire last week.

Crews from Fleet and Rushmoor were alerted to the incident on Crookham Road at around half three on Monday morning.

Upon arrival firefighters found smoke issuing from the two-storey building.

The fire which began in a washing machine was extinguished by firefighters in breathing apparatus using hose reel jets before ventilation fans cleared the smoke.

Having been rescued by firefighters the dogs were given oxygen and then taken onto a local vet by the owners.

The stop message came in at 4:28 when crews left the scene and returned back to station.
