The fire started in the backyard and then extended to the house, said the deputy fire chief.

Firefighters found no fire on the first floor of the ranch house, but the fire had climbed to the attic from outside, said Deputy Chief O’Rourke.

Neighbors called 9-1-1 about the fire. The homeowners were home when the fire started, and got out safely.

Firefighters searched and found both the family dogs, explained Deputy Chief O’Rourke.

The home is not livable at this time, due to water and smoke damage.

The fire started with a fire pit in the back yard. The fire pit was left unattended for a bit and the fire got away from the pit, said the deputy chief.

No firefighters were injured.

Sudbury, Wayland, and Ashland covered Framingham stations while firefighters were at the fire.
