''We thought someone had put something through the letter-box or there had been a gas explosion.''
A dog blew up his owner's house after chewing on a deodorant can.
Puppy Zeus caused £2,000 worth of damage in his owner Kerry Leech's property after munching on the flammable object and sparking a huge explosion which set a sofa on fire and shattered the home's double-glazed windows.
Kerry said: ''He's just a pup and at the moment he'll chew anything.
''We thought someone had put something through the letter-box or there had been a gas explosion.''
Fortunately, Zeus and Kerry's five other pets managed to escape the property unharmed.
