Firefighters braved intense flames to rescue a dozen dogs from a fire that completely destroyed the SPCA of Western Quebec Sunday night but an unknown number of animals perished.

Crews ultimately had to flee the building as the two-storey structure 659 Auguste Mondoux Street in Gatineau collapsed.

They’d been summoned at 10:48 p.m. when several passersby spotted flames and called 911.

A total of 31 firefighters and 11 trucks tackled the fire, which had already engulfed the entire roof as the first crews arrived.

Damage is pegged at $580,000.

Fire department investigators are probing the cause.
