Shortly before 1 p.m., firefighters were dispatched to the 3500 block of North Avenida Albor, where heavy smoke was coming from the eaves of a single-story home, a ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ Fire Department news release said.

The first crew on scene confirmed residents were not inside the home.

One of two dogs inside was safely removed, but the second dog was found dead, the news release said.

The blaze eventually caused the attic to collapse into the home. No firefighters were injured after battling the fire for 45 minutes.

The couple is staying with family and the American Red Cross is assisting with needed clothing and medications.

The cause and origin of the fire is being investigated.
