Firefighters Rescue Dog From Housefire

The Cocke County Fire Department responded to a house fire on Apricot Road in Cosby on Thursday. No one was reported to at home when that fire broke out, but firefighters went inside to make sure and found a dog that was overcome by smoke. The firefighters got the dog out of the home and began administering oxygen to the pooch…who responded and was taken to a vet where the dog is recovering nicely…thanks to the efforts of some heroic firefighters who saved the dog from sure death. No humans were hurt in that fire. The structure was not completely destroyed but there was severe damage to the inside of that home.
