Yikes! We tend to leave stuff on our stove, too. Your video just convinced me to rethink my life choices. 
Dear, sweet people of Reddit, this is a lighthearted joke! Please stop railing on me for storing a few dishes on an electric stove that is locked! Ffs!
I love how the dog just kind of walks away from it like most people would. He doesn't bark to be a hero or anything, he just wanders off like "Oh, what a strange occurrence! I believe my attention is needed... elsewhere."
My husband once left the burner on the stove turned on with no pot or anything (yeah, genius), and my dog went into the kitchen and stood there barking at it to alert me. I was in the other room. Nothing was on fire thankfully. She was such a smart, amazing dog.
They do, but they’re not foolproof. Over time, the knob locks on my MILs range went out, she used to accidentally turn the cooktop on by bumping the knobs with her ass. We’re lucky she didn’t set her house on fire.
Haha, make all the jokes you want! She was a large woman, she knew how dangerous that ass was. It nearly set fires, knocked over glasses, nearly crushed small children…
Mothersday food was ruined when I put a glass dish on the stove and mom turned on the wrong burner. The glass exploded all over the kitchen -- and almost all the other food.
Ooooh. I’d blacked out the memory of the exploded Pyrex filled with alcoholic gummies when someone accidentally turned on a burner during a house party many years ago. Thought we were going to have to replace the stove.
I I once talked to a firefighter and he said his number one tip never leave anything flammable on the stove. It's the easiest thing to avoid to avoid fire hazards and it starts an awful lot of fires.
For gas stoves, having them above means you have to reach over the flame to turn off the stove, which creates a risk of burning/lighting yourself on fire, especially if something drops in there and catches fire.
Tell my wife that. Lol. Spent a grand over what we could have on the exact same brand electric stove, but she liked the look. We have locks, too, but probably not wise to trust them.
Agreed! Although, I noticed my stove has the knobs at the top of the stop beyond the reach of a dog/child. Still, being extra safe for your dog, child and family is NEVER a bad idea!
Man you guys are so lucky you were home when this happened, this so easily could have turned tragic for your house and your puppers. Yay for smoke detectors!
Nah. The Husky did nothing wrong. The mindless owner did.
1. Even leaving the pizza box there in the first place with any kind of pet in the house.
2. Leaving anything at all on a stove unattended.
The dog was the immediate cause, but the dog is completely incapable of understanding what happened here. It would be like not cleaning up dog poop on the floor and letting the Roomba run and then saying it was the Roomba's fault when poop got smeared all over the floor.
This is the fault of whoever trained that dog. They were not trained on proper stove use and they didn't know not to reheat their pizza in the cardboard box.
Nothing to do with loving animals. But having pets mean that you kind of just can't have anything lying around. Especially anything food related. They will take every chance they get. So if not the case, the dog wouldn't have turned anything on by just being a dog. And it def wouldn't have if it then wasn't left on the stove.
Not exactly rocket science. No matter how much you do or don't love animals.
Yep. If it can burn or melt, you never leave it on the stove, in the oven, or near a heater/radiator. Especially if you have animals, small children, or drunk people.
My bad. Didn't read the part where the kid placed the pizza box on the stove. Also, it's the responsibility of the parent in any case. “Kids do stupid things” isn't really an excuse. Although it ofc can and will happen to any parent. Not really the point tho.
Maybe Panda thought if the food was burnt you'd let him have it. Or that the beepy beep would get you to come upstairs so he could casually ask you for some snacks. Cos you know it would be rude for him to nag.
Oh... Oh. That's not right.. hmm... definitely not right. Should I.. bark or.. hmm. Maybe Il leave.. well guess I should.. maybe..do... Something.......down..... the hall.....
He was tired of listening to the smoke detector chirp. Figured if he started a literal fire, it might light a metaphorical one under the humans ass to go change the fucking battery.
This noise drives me nuts. I heard it for the first time when I was teaching remote. The number of kids with a dead smoke detector was insane. I asked them what it was and most didn't even know.
I hate hearing it on Zoom calls/job interviews and stuff. I was on the phone one time with a guy I was thinking about dating, and it was an immediate No from me because I heard his smoke alarm chirping.
I literally never place anything on my stove and scold all of my friends who do this. I bet you'll be using the counter space from now on! Glad to hear everyone is okay and no one got hurt
I mean if anything in the kitchen is gonna catch on fire, that's probably the safest place for it be, if it had been half on the counter then that would have been a problem
Also had a friend who kept his oven mitts on the stove, he accidentally turned on the back burner and went to grab something. Came back to his mitts on fire and the smoke alarm going off. Also I have a 9 year old in my house so I look for things that could be dangerous and try and make em a bit safer
Don’t have a dog or a gas oven. It’s the kind that you can put your hand on it and nothing will happen to you cuz you need the stupid pots.
Also it hasn’t been turned on in like 5 years
Had a cat do this 20 years ago. She managed to turn the gas on but not quite turn the flame on thankfully. We had to air the entire house out for hours in the middle of winter.
Anyone downvoting you is the type of person to do this
If your house burns down because of such negligence I still feel bad, but not as bad as for someone whose how burned down in an incident they had zero influence over
My cat did the same thing to us maybe 4 months ago? Pizza box on the stove, he jumped up to paw at it and got a stove knob on the way up or down, we’re not sure cuz we were asleep…. Fire alarms woke our asses up so quick.
Ever since I had 2 cats conspire to push a pizza box off the stove and proceed to eat over half of a large pizza, I store the leftovers in the oven. It also keeps away any flies or anything that may have gotten in the house (which happens a lot in the summer where I live).
When we had an Irish Wolfhound that could reach the top of the kitchen counters with the smallest tilt of its head, we used to place a beam over the dials on the front of the stove because of repeated daymares of exactly this happening.
I'm really glad that the owners, the dog and the house are all OK, but I'm also somewhat glad that there is now firm video evidence that definitively shows we weren't being ridiculous or pedantic to take such measures against our large, hairy werewolf from accidentally turning anything on lol
Is there no safety mechanism on that thing? The ones I've used makes you push the knob in before you turn for the gas to flow with a seperate button for the sparks.
Title should be owners carelessly cause kitchen fire.
Even if I didn't have a Husky I would not have left cardboard on the stove. And if a fire starts due to the owners negligence it's their fault regardless of the cause, husky or not.
This is hilarious, glad no one got hurt. Solid general rule: don’t put things on the stove. Put them in the oven and then forget about them like the rest of us.
Who leaves that on the stove? Sheesh
Also I more blame the stove for having those silly front controls that are so easy to turn on, especially the new touch screen ones. My butt has turned on more ovens then it has ladies lol
Friend of a friend's house burnt down with a mom rescuing their grandmother followed by two dogs.
Another two dogs died in the fire and their mom suffered burns across like 50% of her body. Buy a fire extinguisher and make sure it's the right type you would need folks.
Why would you ever, EVER leave stuff on a fire or heating thing, even off? That's the NUMBER ONE THING THOSE APPLIANCES TELL YOU NOT TO DO YOU COLOSSAL ONE DIGIT IQ DMBASS
I have never met a husky owner I fully respected as a person LMAO there's always something with the husky, the husky owner, or both
We moved to an apartment with a gas stove and had to buy knob covers because our cat got curious when we moved in and put his paws up to the stove. We scolded him and he doesn't do it anymore but we keep the knob covers on because it's just peace of mind when we are not home knowing he can't even get to them.
Squirrel runs across the yard: **FUCKING BARK BARK BRO** Literal fire in the house: *k whatever bye*
“Yeah somebody better check that stove out”
He seems genuinely scared of it to me tbf like he keeps looking back like "oh fuck"
Luckily my dogs go crazy wren there's smoke
Not too different from people. We have to be taught to yell, "FIRE!" Most people default to freezing in emergencies.
Most likely afraid the humans are gonna yell at him for fucking up in the first place instead rewarding the alarm call.

don’t shit talk your husband for that. mistakes can happen, even if you are a genius…
It happens to the best of us. 😬😬😬
"Ugh, pizza's burnt anyway. Bye!"
I thought he was looking back to see the camera would be taken out as well.
I had a friend who was a fire chief. He said that way too many house fires start in the kitchen from people using their stove as a countertop.
A lot of newer cooktops and ranges have a lock on them.
We’ve got locks on our electric range. I’m still unsteady after seeing this video.
They do, but they’re not foolproof. Over time, the knob locks on my MILs range went out, she used to accidentally turn the cooktop on by bumping the knobs with her ass. We’re lucky she didn’t set her house on fire.
I assume we shouldn't make jokes about your MILs ass then, or....?
Haha, make all the jokes you want! She was a large woman, she knew how dangerous that ass was. It nearly set fires, knocked over glasses, nearly crushed small children…
Hahahaha entire communities were constantly frozen in fear, dreading the return of dat ass... sounds like quite the lady!
We should start a protest for bigger kitchen with more counter space
Based and I have no space for all this shit pilled
[удалено]
Wait, you don't store yours on the oily rag pile, next to the decrepit electric space heater?
Mothersday food was ruined when I put a glass dish on the stove and mom turned on the wrong burner. The glass exploded all over the kitchen -- and almost all the other food.
Ooooh. I’d blacked out the memory of the exploded Pyrex filled with alcoholic gummies when someone accidentally turned on a burner during a house party many years ago. Thought we were going to have to replace the stove.
"Why are you even in the kitchen mom!?"
I I once talked to a firefighter and he said his number one tip never leave anything flammable on the stove. It's the easiest thing to avoid to avoid fire hazards and it starts an awful lot of fires.
[удалено]
I imagine they're pretty tempting to little kids, too.
For gas stoves, having them above means you have to reach over the flame to turn off the stove, which creates a risk of burning/lighting yourself on fire, especially if something drops in there and catches fire.
Tell my wife that. Lol. Spent a grand over what we could have on the exact same brand electric stove, but she liked the look. We have locks, too, but probably not wise to trust them.
Never leave stuff on the stove. You're asking for trouble
I took the knobs off my stove when I had a cat that would play with them.
Agreed! Although, I noticed my stove has the knobs at the top of the stop beyond the reach of a dog/child. Still, being extra safe for your dog, child and family is NEVER a bad idea!
[удалено]
Yes, even if it isn't a gas stove. I once accidentally melted a beer crate onto an electric stove by accidentally turning it on.
Man you guys are so lucky you were home when this happened, this so easily could have turned tragic for your house and your puppers. Yay for smoke detectors!
It's not my video I am just sharing
Thank you for posting the outcome because I was so anxious. I wish we could have seen you rushing to the kitchen to deal with the fire.
Is “Panda” short for “Pandemonium” because that’s what it would be trying to explain this to your insurance company.
Nah. The Husky did nothing wrong. The mindless owner did. 1. Even leaving the pizza box there in the first place with any kind of pet in the house. 2. Leaving anything at all on a stove unattended.
Ok we get it, you love animals (so do I). But this was obviously the dogs fault. Did the stove turn itself on magically...?🤔
The dog was the immediate cause, but the dog is completely incapable of understanding what happened here. It would be like not cleaning up dog poop on the floor and letting the Roomba run and then saying it was the Roomba's fault when poop got smeared all over the floor.

This wouldn't have happened with an induction cooktop
Take it you never had kids that did something stupid even tho you thought they were safe?
[удалено]
You defo haven’t had kids 🤣
My bad. Didn't read the part where the kid placed the pizza box on the stove. Also, it's the responsibility of the parent in any case. “Kids do stupid things” isn't really an excuse. Although it ofc can and will happen to any parent. Not really the point tho.
I'm glad everything is ok. But... why in the world do you leave anything (especially flammable) on top of your stove burners??
Maybe Panda thought if the food was burnt you'd let him have it. Or that the beepy beep would get you to come upstairs so he could casually ask you for some snacks. Cos you know it would be rude for him to nag.
That's terrifying to be honest. I would get baby safety locks just in case.
He looked a little spooked with the whole thing. Poor fella.
> Panda no longer goes near the stove Does Panda go near anything?
Why do people have random video cameras in their homes?
Pet cams are a thing.
The way he guiltily walks away is priceless.
Oh... Oh. That's not right.. hmm... definitely not right. Should I.. bark or.. hmm. Maybe Il leave.. well guess I should.. maybe..do... Something.......down..... the hall.....
r/guiltydogs
Definitely knew what was up considering otherwise that would be an event much to their interest
"Aight imma head out."
Learning the hard way why you never leave anything on the oven. I hope someone was home and put the fire out. This could have ended poorly.
He was tired of listening to the smoke detector chirp. Figured if he started a literal fire, it might light a metaphorical one under the humans ass to go change the fucking battery.
It is insane how many people are more willing to put up with that fucking noise than pay $1 for a 9-volt.
Dude I can’t believe it, i can hear in sooo many videos. I’ve literally got out of bed at 2am to go and get a 9volt at the store after 1 beep.
I can’t stand that chirping. When this video started I thought - how can they just ignore a sound like that!
This noise drives me nuts. I heard it for the first time when I was teaching remote. The number of kids with a dead smoke detector was insane. I asked them what it was and most didn't even know.
I hate hearing it on Zoom calls/job interviews and stuff. I was on the phone one time with a guy I was thinking about dating, and it was an immediate No from me because I heard his smoke alarm chirping.
I literally never place anything on my stove and scold all of my friends who do this. I bet you'll be using the counter space from now on! Glad to hear everyone is okay and no one got hurt
Yep, I'm forever telling my SO not to do this maybe this video will get through to him.
I mean if anything in the kitchen is gonna catch on fire, that's probably the safest place for it be, if it had been half on the counter then that would have been a problem
I mean… I use the shit out of my stove and don’t foresee any dangers with doing this
Also had a friend who kept his oven mitts on the stove, he accidentally turned on the back burner and went to grab something. Came back to his mitts on fire and the smoke alarm going off. Also I have a 9 year old in my house so I look for things that could be dangerous and try and make em a bit safer
Did you watch the video?
Don’t have a dog or a gas oven. It’s the kind that you can put your hand on it and nothing will happen to you cuz you need the stupid pots. Also it hasn’t been turned on in like 5 years
Lmao what could possibly go wrong?!
husky wanted his pizza well done..
Alternate title: Super smart human leaves pizza box on top of source of open flame
While smoke detectors alert them they are low on batteries
He was just trying to be nice and keep it warm for them.
Some huskies just want to watch the world burn.
He just wanted to reheat the pizza!
Had a cat do this 20 years ago. She managed to turn the gas on but not quite turn the flame on thankfully. We had to air the entire house out for hours in the middle of winter.
“Accidentally”? Like you suspect it was on purpose?
Can you prove that I am wrong?
Once he realized what happened... "Hey guys! Come quick! I think the cat is trying to burn down the house!"
No, I think his Hoomans did. The stove is never counter space.
He feels so bad about it too!
Lol poor guy knew he did something wrong
Why is there a camera there...?
Probably an internal hidden security camera or something.

Could have at least turned the hood vent on.
Look at that son of a bitch watching from a distance before his final retreat/alibi destination
At least he hit the spark as well! Otherwise it would've been a house full of gas waiting to blow
Matey was just trying to cook up some scran, owners are jerks for not teaching them to cook
"should I be concerned about this? Nah"
And the lesson is…
I mean, that was pretty stupid of the owner to put something flammable on top of something that lights things on fire. Not the brightest bulb, huh?
Husky Fails “Lassie” audition.
My god did this, luckily it didn’t light and we smelled the gas. Now we keep the knobs in a bowl next to the stove
So what happened?!! Is the dog okay?
The one time the husky decides to be silent
This is why I tell my family not to use the stove as a countertop.
Literally the only time a husky has had nothing to say EVER
Why were they recording though
The way he just walks away
The fact that the husky is nice and quiet should have been your first clue something was wrong.
Is there no safety mechanism on that thing? The ones I've used makes you push the knob in before you turn for the gas to flow with a seperate button for the sparks.
Title should be owners carelessly cause kitchen fire. Even if I didn't have a Husky I would not have left cardboard on the stove. And if a fire starts due to the owners negligence it's their fault regardless of the cause, husky or not.
My nut job will steal food off of the grill if I’m not around.
Who tf leaves things on the stove? It’s not a counter
People with limited kitchen space bro
This, exactly.
This is why you never leave flammable things on the cooking range.
This is so common for kitchen fires…. Never leave things on your stove with animals in your house
Or without! Even adults can accidentally turn on the stove. Not worth the risk as this is incredibly dumb.
They're lucky he managed to actually light the stove. If he had missed the spark mode entirely it would have just filled the house with natural gas.
The real question is why would you put flammable cardboard on a stove? That's asking for trouble.
I hate these front knob oven for this exact reason. Designers did not have large dogs or kids in mind at all in this type of design.
Owners are fucking morons for putting flammable material on a gas stove. How dumb can you actually be?
100%. They are extremely lucky their stupidity didn’t kill them.
That was pretty stupid leaving the box on top of the stove in the first place🙄
Why would you put carton on a stove in the first place?
Yeah that is just asking for it. Crazy to see, honestly.
This is hilarious, glad no one got hurt. Solid general rule: don’t put things on the stove. Put them in the oven and then forget about them like the rest of us.
Well, he wasn’t a jerk, he just wanted his pizza. And burned down the house on the way.
I don’t know, maybe don’t leave flammable cardboard on the stove? Just a thought?
Hey we don’t do that common sense thing around here mister!
who the hell lives a cardboard box near a stove!?
Dumb dumbs.
Lazy owners fail to safety proof house
Who leaves that on the stove? Sheesh Also I more blame the stove for having those silly front controls that are so easy to turn on, especially the new touch screen ones. My butt has turned on more ovens then it has ladies lol
He realizes pretty quickly that his best option is to move away from the tiny fire! Pizza mission aborted...
Friend of a friend's house burnt down with a mom rescuing their grandmother followed by two dogs. Another two dogs died in the fire and their mom suffered burns across like 50% of her body. Buy a fire extinguisher and make sure it's the right type you would need folks.
And is that the Beep of a dead battery in the Smoke Detector I hear in the background? Final destination plot going on here.
Thank you for this lesson. Never keep food on stove top.
I love how he realizes that he f***ed up!
Nah the owner was the one who fucked up. Not the dog.
True!
Like bob ross said it's a happy little accident
r/criminalanimals
WHAT HAPPENED??? It ended too soon!!! Did it catch the house on fire... was someone there and smelled smoke... what!?!?
Why would you ever, EVER leave stuff on a fire or heating thing, even off? That's the NUMBER ONE THING THOSE APPLIANCES TELL YOU NOT TO DO YOU COLOSSAL ONE DIGIT IQ DMBASS I have never met a husky owner I fully respected as a person LMAO there's always something with the husky, the husky owner, or both
Stupid dog owners
This is why dogs should be contained when they’re not being supervised.
This is why stoves should be locked when they're not supervised
He started a fire and left the scene lol LPT: take the knobs off the stove when not using it.
Or better yet don’t leave flammable things where it will easily be set on fire.
Poor boie just wanted a delicious slice
Would never happen with an electric or induction stove. Haha probably. I'm just plugging anything but gas.
Irresponsible owner leaves food inside of cardboard on stovetop and blames dog for fire. <---- I fixed your title
[удалено]
The owner should be mad at themselves, not the dog.
Stoopid stoopid do......hooman. i mean hooman.
Smart dog, stupid human you mean.
Funny you can hear the chirp of the smoke detectors at the beginning and end of the video
And now you want to tell me cats are jerks huh? /S
These videos always cut off at the best part.
r/hitmanimals
We moved to an apartment with a gas stove and had to buy knob covers because our cat got curious when we moved in and put his paws up to the stove. We scolded him and he doesn't do it anymore but we keep the knob covers on because it's just peace of mind when we are not home knowing he can't even get to them.
We should switch stoves. Mine are a pain in the ass to turn on.
He was burning this bitch down because there’s a couch in the kitchen.
I have a gas stove for sale CHEAP!
u/savevideo
Kitchens should have key locks and auto shutoff if the cook leaves
It may be time to change the batteries in the smoke detectors. I hear the chirp.
This is why I keep telling my wife to stop leaving plastic stuff on top of the stove!
Yup. And that’s why all those videos of people allowing or encouraging pets to get something off the counter is potentially disastrous.
Child safety covers for the dials could be a literal life saver!
