Five puppies have died in a fire in Santa Rosa, city officials said on Saturday.

At around 1:20 p.m. on Sept. 18, the Santa Rosa Fire Department received reports of a possible trailer on fire in the 1100 block of Rutledge Ave.


Multiple roadblocks stood in between crews and the blaze, but after 15 minutes, firefighters were able to extinguish the flames. Despite their efforts, the home was ruled as a complete loss.

No residents died or were injured, but five puppies trapped inside the trailer lost their lives. A firefighter also suffered a minor burn while battling the flames and the home adjacent to the trailer suffered exterior fire damage.

The cause of the fire is currently under investigation.
