FIREFIGHTERS administered oxygen therapy to a dog after it was rescued from a fire in Nether Kellet.

Carnforth and Lancaster crews attended a kitchen fire at a domestic property on Shaw Lane on Monday (March 19) afternoon.

The fire had spread from the kitchen to the first floor of the property before firefighters arrived and they quickly set about tackling the fire using two breathing apparatus, one hose reel and one ventilation unit.

Firefighters rescued a pet dog from the property and administered oxygen therapy to the animal at the scene prior to the arrival of a check over by a vet.

There were no other casualties at the scene and crews were in attendance for approximately two hours.
