Walton County Fire Rescue crews arrived on scene just after 9:30 AM this morning and quickly began extinguishing the blaze encompassing the home of a Walton County family. The residents made it out of the mobile home safely and no injuries were reported. One of the residents was able to rescue one of the family’s two pet dogs, but unfortunately, they lost the second dog and a pet blue jay in the fire.
