Husky starts kitchen fire after owners leave him home alone

A kitchen fire in Essex was started by a dog who switched on a microwave with some buns inside when he was left home alone.

The husky is thought to have turned on the microwave “inadvertently”, according to Essex Fire Service

A packet of bread rolls were inside the microwave at the time and began to burn, causing a small fire.

The dog, who has not been named, was alone in the kitchen at the time – his owner was not at home.

But he noticed smoke in the kitchen using a camera connected to his phone.
