Alexandria Fire Department Captain Chris Eddy knelt beside the dog, Harold, that was taken out of a smoke-filled house at 812 Lake Street Wednesday afternoon. Chief Jeff Karrow said that the firefighters make a special effort to search for pets and are sensitive to how much they mean to their owners. “Sometimes people’s pets can be as precious as their siblings or
