My dog woke me up at six in the morning and what I saw next terrified me.
That morning, I’ll never forget what I saw. It was six o’clock, the time I usually woke up, but this time it was different. I was fast asleep, in my bed.
The night before, I had gotten home very late from a party, at 3 a.m., and I was counting on a few extra hours of sleep. But in the morning, my dog started barking, loud and insistent, as if he had something urgent.
It wasn’t like him to wake me up so early. He usually only wakes me up for his walk.
“Let me get some sleep,” I whispered to him, hoping he’d understand. But he didn’t stop. Instead, he put his paw on my chest and began to shake me gently, all the while staring straight into my eyes.
It was strange, this insistence. Such an intelligent dog never behaved like this, and I didn’t really understand what was bothering him so much.
I looked at him, a little annoyed. “What now?” I muttered, closing my eyes again, hoping to go back to sleep. But he still didn’t move; he jumped on the bed and barked right next to my ear.
I finally opened my eyes and at that moment, I realized something was wrong. When I finally understood the reason for his behavior, I was terrified.
The rest of my story is in the article in the first comment .

A strange, burning smell filled the air, waking me abruptly.
At first indefinable, it quickly became clear: the smell of burning, growing stronger and stronger.
My heart pounding, I rushed out of bed, running barefoot down the hallway.

There, a thick gray smoke was already invading my room.
From the living room, flames roared, devouring everything in their path.
My dog barked at the fire, turning to me as if to say, “Faster!”

Trembling, I called the fire department and left the apartment with my dog.
Later I learned that I had left the iron on.
My dog smelled the smoke before me, and saved my life.
