Search teams found one canine pet deceased inside. No other occupants were found inside. Paramedics provided a medical assessment on scene for the two that evacuated. Both were found to be in good condition, but one of them (12-year-old female) was transported for a medical checkup, after the traumatic experience of fleeing the fire.
