PHOENIX (AP) - The Phoenix Fire Department says at least 10 dogs escaped a boarding kennel fire unharmed after firefighters opened multiple gates to allow them to get out of the burning structure on their own.

Firefighters were able to keep the fire from spreading to a nearby home and no firefighters were injured.

Fire Capt. Todd Keller says cause of the fire early Wednesday morning is under investigation.
