Bailey, a Staffordshire bull terrier, went for a wee against a faulty pylon, reports The Sun.
His owner Gary Davies said: “There was an almighty explosion and the whole street lit up. I turned round and the dog was on fire.”
The power was off in homes in Middlestone Moor, Co Durham for five hours.
Fortunately, according to the article, Bailey is recovering and recuperating.
