Firefighters saved three dogs from a heavy fire that raced through portions of an apartment complex in southwest Houston early this morning.
The two-alarm fire broke out about 12:30 a.m. at the complex in the 8700 block of Gustine, Houston fire officials said. Firefighters extinguished the blaze about an hour later.
No injuries were reported, but firefighters saved two puppies and their mother from a smoke-filled apartment adjacent to the burning units.
The dogs were not injured, but one of the puppies appeared to have inhaled too much smoke and firefighters placed a specially designed animal oxygen mask on it to help it breath.
The fire gutted two apartments. Fire officials said it appears the blaze started from an electrical problem in the kitchen of one of the units.
