A Candler family is without a home, after flames destroy their house Saturday afternoon in the Hilltop Mobile Home Court.  No one was inside, except for the family dog.  A neighbor called the tenants, who quickly returned to find their home engulfed in flames.  Firefighters arrived in time to manage the flames, stopping them from spreading to nearby homes. Crews also helped save the tenant's three month old dog, Lucie.  She had been hiding in the basement, away from the fire.The Enka-Candler Fire Department along with several other departments responded to the fire.  Investigators say the house and all the belongings are a total loss.  They say the fire started upstairs, but the cause is still under investigation.
