This is for victims of a fire at a local animal shelter. 300 animals

the shelter did there best but the rainbow bridge called them to cross to
the other side.

Sanford, Fla. -- A faulty dryer at Seminole County Animal Services in
Sanford is being blamed for killing 40 animals early Thursday, according to
Local 6 News.

Wednesday night, Seminole County firefighters were called to Seminole County
Animal Services after someone smelled smoke. However, no fire was found.

About six hours later at 2 a.m., firefighters responded to flames at the
animal facility.

The fire was knocked down in about 15 minutes but not before 32 cats and
seven dogs were killed. Other animals were also treated for smoke
inhalation.
