Marcano said he smelled the smoke and was shocked to find his house on fire.
The story published Friday did not say why the dog ran back in. Marcano said no one else was inside the house at the time.
Marcano did not immediately return a call for comment.
He said firefighters on Wednesday found the body of his dog, "Rebel," as well as the remains of the family's pet parrot.
