A curious 9-month-old puppy almost burned down the house after it sparked a house fire.

New Mexico officials said a curious 9-month-old puppy was to blame for a fire at a home last month.

Home security video shows the moment a 9-month-old puppy named Kahuna was running around the furniture when it accidentally knocked over an ironing board.

The items blocked a floor heating grate, causing a fire to erupt.

The Los Alamos County Fire Department said, “The furnace was operating and produced sufficient heat to melt some items, which flowed into the heater and served as the necessary fuel to initiate the fire down inside the furnace unit.”

In a video that was released by the police department, the dog can be seen knocking over the ironing board, which caused the fire to erupt.

The police said it took around 1 hour for the fire to ignite.

Kahuna and the other dog in the video escaped without sustaining any injuries after the fire erupted.

Firefighters said they were able to quickly douse the fire and limit damage to the structure.

In a statement that was released by the fire department on Facebook, they said, “LAFD recommends homeowners ensure that smoke alarms are installed and working, that no combustible items be placed on or within three feet of heating devices or heat-producing appliances.”

The statement added, “Another important safety practice is to have an escape plan as demonstrated perfectly in the video.”

It is important for pet owners to remove all electric appliances when they leave the house.
