Saturday, two dogs died in a house fire that fire officials say the dogs started when they accidentally turned on the stove top. Q13 News spoke to the homeowner. He did not want us to say his name, but he let us into his home to show us the destruction. Destruction, the home owner is very familiar seeing himself; he’s been a firefighter for the last 17 years. But he says he never thought he’d see this sort of damage in his own home; the home he and his wife lived in for ten years, a home with two kids, and two dogs, two dogs who didn’t make it out of the fire. “It’s very, very sad,” said Captain Kyle Ohashi with Puget Sound Fire. Ohashi says he and the rest of his team tried to revive the two dogs, but it was too late. Ohashi says what makes the incident so heartbreaking is how the fire started.
