Officials said the dog is doing well.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">A FLFR spokesperson said no one was inside the unit where the fire started, nor in the unit where the dog was found. A resident in another nearby unit was woken up by the fire and evacuated safely.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">The flames were extinguished within about 10 minutes. The cause of the fire remains under investigation.<\/p>\n<p>\ud83c\udfe0 News From Your Neighborhood<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph b-article-body__copyright\">Copyright 2025 by WPLG Local10.com &#8211; All rights reserved.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-chromatic=\"ignore\" alt=\"Ryan Mackey\" class=\"c-image\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/https:\/\/author-service-images-sandbox-us-east-1.publishing.aws.arc.pub\/wplginc\/8725e99c-e445-48a0-bd.jpeg\"  width=\"100\" height=\"100\"\/>Ryan Mackey <\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph b-author-bio__author-description\">Ryan Mackey is a Digital Journalist at WPLG.
