A group of high school students helping out in Guangfu unexpectedly became live savers after rescuing a dog from a stranded car. The students were taking a walk during their break from shoveling mud when they were drawn to a car. They opened the door to find a dog that had apparently been locked inside for more than a week.
A dog stands still and silent on the back seat. During a break from clearing out mud in Guangfu, a group of students from Yilan found the animal inside the car tied up with a leash around its neck.

Found the dog in the car
At first we were just curious. We just wanted to open the door and take a look. When we opened, we saw the dog emerging from inside. It gave us a fright!
They immediately rushed to the rescue. This group of students came to Guangfu with their teacher to help clear the mud at a bed-and-breakfast on Fozu Street. While out on a walk in the area, they found a car stuck on a bridge, and their curiosity saved the dog inside.

They were so shocked, they called out, “Miss! There’s a dog here!”
The dog appeared weak, but immediately recovered after it was given water and food. The past few days have been hot in Hualien, so it was lucky that the car was in the shade and that the sunroof window had broken, providing ventilation that kept the dog alive.
The group of students had arrived in Guangfu on Oct. 1, to help clear out debris from hard-hit areas inaccessible by heavy machinery. They worked hard despite the dust, smells and exhaustion.

We went over there and it was all muddy and stinky.

The return to normalcy in Guangfu is a long way away. We hope to perhaps make these activities regular, across different subjects, perhaps on a weekly schedule, so that everyone can go help.
The students had just gone for a day of digging up mud, and ended up saving a life among the chaos.

宜蘭縣蘇澳海事學校,週三帶著20多位學生進到花蓮光復災區幫忙,學生們在當鏟子超人的過程中,因為一時的好奇,打開卡民宿前漂流車,卻意外救出、受困車內超過一星期的狗狗。
車門開開,一隻狗狗不動也不叫,宜蘭蘇澳海事學校的學生發現時,狗狗脖子上還有繩子 緊緊拴著,大家原本在當鏟子超人,休息時間意外救了這隻狗。

“一開始是抱著好奇的心態,想說去開開看那個車門,結果一打開的時候,第一眼就是看到那隻狗從裡面探出頭來,第一時間其實是被嚇到。”
當志工變成愛心救援全都是巧合串起,學生們在老師的陪同下,透過網路媒合,進到花蓮光復,來到佛祖街這間民宿,剛好走到這一區,剛好發現車子卡在橋上,也剛好學生們好奇心發作,才能剛好成功救回狗狗的命。

“他們(學生)當時就是有嚇一跳,就說老師這邊有一隻狗欸!”
這隻小狗,應該是體力透支,給水、給食物後,馬上吃完,恢復體力,尤其這幾天花蓮天氣炎熱,狗狗被關在裡面,還好有樹蔭擋住車的天窗又破掉通風,才有辦法活命。
師生們10月1日進到光復重災區幫忙,因為大型機具難以進入,布滿淤泥跟瓦礫的角落,粉塵飛揚、氣味也相當重,學生們還是堅持到底。

“去到那邊,踩的地方都有土,味道其實也不太好聞。”
[[宜蘭蘇澳海事學校校長 陳志威]]
“因為這個整個光復的復原之路其實還很漫長。未來怎麼樣讓它成為帶狀,甚或延續的活動,由各個科,也許我們分週次,不同的週次,規模不拘,讓大家都可以前往(協助救災)。”
學生們一日的志工行,儘管累,但也替當地居民在災後重建盡份心力。
