More than a hundred dogs were rescued after the doggy daycare they were in caught fire in north Seattle Wednesday morning.
The fire was reported just before 11 a.m. in the 13000 block of Lake City Way Northeast. The fire began inside the Dog Resort, a dog daycare and boarding business, that's across the street from the Fred Meyer in the Lake City neighborhood.
Firefighters believe the blaze began in the laundry area of the daycare, according to Seattle fire officials.
The KOMO News helicopter flew over the scene Wednesday and saw firefighters battling the fire and evacuating dogs from the business. Firefighters rescued approximately 115 dogs and provided medical care to several of them. Out of the daycare's staff, just one member was evaluated on scene for smoke inhalation and was expected to be okay, officials said.
