Nassau County, New York - He may only be two years old and weigh just over 10 pounds, but this goldendoodle dog named Chase has become a hero overnight after warning his sleeping owners of a dangerous fire!

At around 5:30 AM ET on Sunday morning, the fire department in Long Beach, New York, received an emergency call.

When Assistant Fire Chief Hadrick Ray arrived on the scene, massive flames were already spreading through the floors of the house, as ABC7 reports.

Meanwhile, the home's occupants were still asleep inside when their dog noticed the disaster.

Miraculously, the little goldendoodle managed to wake up his family, and they were able to escape the blaze unharmed.

Several firefighting teams fought the flames with high pressure, and after around 40 minutes, the fire was finally under control.

Emergency services then used special tools to search for hidden pockets of embers.

The cause of the fire is still under investigation, but one thing is certain: without the help of this furry friend, things could've turned out far worse!
