A family dog escaped a burning home on Thursday and now the family is searching for their lost four-legged friend.
Authorities responded on Thursday to 824 Church Street in Washington Court House shortly after 2:30 p.m. after receiving a 9-1-1 call of a house fully engulfed in flames.
When firefighters arrived on scene, no one was home and they found the rear of the house to be fully ablaze near the garage area.
Mutual aid was requested from other fire departments, including Bloomingburg.
It took firefighters over an hour and a half to get the fire under control.

Once the firefighters were able to gain entry into the structure, and after the family arrived on scene, it was learned that ?Sarge? ? the family?s one-year-old white boxer ? was missing.
It?s believed that Sarge escaped the burning inferno shortly before firefighters arrived on scene.
If you see Sarge, or know his whereabouts, the family is requesting you contact family friend Kendra Arnold at (740) 313-7471.
There?s no word on what may have caused the fire.
