Heat lamp believed to be the cause of dog house/shop fire

Published

on

Bowie firefighters went to this shop fire at 6:30 p.m. on Nov. 23, where they found a dog house inside it on fire. Water can be seen coming from inside the shop. Fire Chief Doug Page said it appears to have started through a heat lamp in the dog house. Page said heat lamps and animals don’t go together as a method of warmth, but if they are used make sure the lamp bulb is encased in case the bulb shatters or is knocked down.
