NYC Realtor Escapes Apartment Fire Thanks to Alert Dog
Taylor Middleton, star of Netflix's "Selling the City," and her husband owe their lives to their golden retriever, Mac. The dog's frantic barking woke them in the middle of the night to a smoke-filled apartment in their Tribeca building.

Middleton recounts grabbing essential items – laptop, chargers, passport – before evacuating. The NYC Fire Department responded swiftly, but the fire reignited hours later, forcing the building to be declared uninhabitable for 4-6 months.

Middleton reflects on a friend's experience losing their home in the California wildfires, highlighting the importance of preparedness in such situations. She emphasizes the incredible work of the FDNY and acknowledges the impact of the fire on her neighbors and the community.
The experience, though traumatic, underscores the importance of preparedness and the unwavering loyalty of a pet. The building is currently uninhabitable, with Middleton and her husband temporarily displaced.
