Curiosity almost burned down the house.

A "curious pup" was to blame for a fire at a home last month, officials in New Mexico said Monday.

Home security footage shows the moment a 9-month-old dog named Kahuna was "rearranging" the furniture by knocking over an ironing board, causing the items on it to block a floor heating grate, the Los Alamos County Fire Department said in a news release.

"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," fire officials said.

"Another important safety practice is to have an escape plan as demonstrated perfectly in the video."
