A family had to escape their blazing home during the night after their dog managed to knock their cooker on and set their kitchen on fire.
Accidental arsonist Alfie - now dubbed the "Alfonist" by the family - turned on a griddle attachment, which had a deep fat fryer on top.
Paul Gregson, his wife and two sons were alerted by the smoke alarm, but managed to get out safely with Alfie.
The house in Llanfairfechan, Conwy, suffered thousands of pounds of damage.
