Dog caught on camera faking hind leg injury

Dog caught on camera faking hind leg injury

2026-09-14

A stray dog in Taitung was recently caught on camera faking an injury to get sympathy. The black dog dragged herself across the street, using her front legs to pull her two limp hind legs along behind. Thinking she was injured, an onlooker was about to go over to help, only for the dog to jump up and start walking perfectly fine on all four legs. Everyone was left in stitches, as they called her performance truly Oscar-worthy.

A stray dog strains to pull her limp hind legs behind her, slowly crawling her way across the street in a scene that’s sure to break your heart. But the very next second...

Just as the onlooker couldn’t take it anymore, the dog jumped up on all fours and walked along like nothing was wrong. She even flopped over onto her back and kicked to show her legs were strong and healthy. The onlooker couldn’t believe what he just saw.

Mr. Chen
Onlooker
It seemed like she couldn’t walk and was crawling along. I felt so sorry for her. But when a scooter came by, she suddenly stood up and later even rolled around on the ground. It was such a waste of my sympathy!

The dog was spotted on Siwei Road in Taitung City, where strays often hang around and chase passing vehicles. So naturally, the onlooker assumed she had been hit by a car or abused. But actually, it was all an Oscar-worthy performance that even a scam ring could envy.

Chung Hui-chen
Veterinarian
If an owner praises this type of behavior, the dog might think it’s fun and start exaggerating the performance even more.

It’s unclear where she learned the trick from, but this young pup surely knows how to put on an act!

狗界影帝? 小黑狗"後腿拖地爬行"下一秒健步如飛

2026-09-14

台東居然有流狼狗裝瘸，博同情，有民眾發現一隻黑狗，走路前腳拖著後腿，緩慢爬行，還以為牠受傷了，想要幫忙，結果黑狗走到一半，突然又切回正常模式，四隻腳走得好好的，不僅後腿沒受傷，步伐還輕快穩健，讓人笑稱，根本是狗界影后。

一隻黑狗前腳拖著後腿，在馬路中間緩慢移動，讓人看了好心疼，但是下一秒。

心疼到一半，黑狗直接站了起來，四隻腳走得好好的，還翻肚子踢腿，後腿看起來根本超有力。熱心民眾看了超傻眼。

[[熱心民眾陳先生]]
“好像不能走路，用爬的這樣子，我看著就覺得很可憐，好像有摩托車過來，牠就突然就站起來了，後來還去翻在地上那邊打滾，就是浪費我的同情心”

黑狗出沒在台東市四維路，浪浪在這裡佔地為王，時常追著車跑，才會讓目擊者以為黑狗拖著後腿走，是被人欺負，或是被車撞了。讓網友笑稱，根本是狗界影帝、連狗都開始當詐騙集團。

[[獸醫師鐘惠珍]]
“如果主人有去讚賞牠這個行為，牠會覺得也很好玩，牠可能就會去加重一些表演的性質”

黑浪浪，不知從哪學來，裝瘸走路耍帥。只能說，這隻未成年的小母狗，還真的很會"假鬼假怪"。

Badminton champ tapped as ‘anti-bribery’ ambassador for upcoming election

As the November election approaches, the Qiaotou District Prosecutors’ Office has invited world badminton champion Tai Tzu-ying to serve as their anti-bribery ambassador. The sports star said her father and prosecutors from the office have long supported the sport. As ambassador, she likened her signature smash to her determination to stamp out election bribery, calling on people to treat elections like sporting competitions where fair play is fundamental.

Taiwan’s badminton superstar Tai Tzu-ting leads officials through a series of stretches in preparation for picking up their rackets.

- Hold it behind you and turn to the side. Don’t block your face with your hand, since we’re taking photos.

With the November elections fast approaching, the Qiaotou District Prosecutors’ Office teamed up with their counterparts in Kaohsiung, Pingtung, and Penghu to invite Tai as their anti-bribery ambassador. She got the invite since she’s a Kaohsiung native, and because her father and officials at the office are long-time badminton fans.

Tai Tzu-ying
Badminton champion
During matches, what we value most is fairness. So I think elections are the same. Candidates shouldn’t rely on anything other than their own abilities, and shouldn’t buy votes.

The office also released a promotional video for its official anti-bribery Line account, where the public can easily report unfair election activities.

Kuo Ching-tung
Qiaotou District chief prosecutor
The four prosecutors’ offices in southern Taiwan all work together as a single unit. A powerful smash in badminton is as strong as our crackdown against vote-buying. Through Line—the messaging app that everyone uses the most—anyone can report election misconduct.

As ambassador, Tai called on everyone to treat elections like a sporting competition: free and fair. If anyone spots suspected vote buying, they should report it immediately to help safeguard Taiwan’s democracy together.

High schooler saves the day after school bus sideswipes car!

A school bus driver in Chiayi lost control of his vehicle while driving 20 students home. Despite experiencing a stroke, he continued driving and caused damage along the road. He sideswiped cars and drove against traffic and even wrecked the bus’ side view mirrors. Luckily, a student realized something was wrong and turned off the bus’ engine at a red light, allowing all the students to disembark safely.

- High blood pressure, diabetes, or heart disease?
- Yes
- Which one do you have?
- Heart disease
- Do you have high blood pressure?
- No

Paramedics arrived at the scene to find the school bus driver lying limp and weak on the ground; moments earlier, he had been driving students home after school. He suddenly fell ill, prompting terrified students on board to call emergency services for help.

Student involved
Senior High School in Chiayi
The collision happened right after leaving the school, and there were minor scrapes along the way as well.

Students recalled that shortly after driving out of the school gate, the driver sideswiped a white sedan parked by the roadside. After apologizing, he drove off and veered into the oncoming lane, crashing directly into a street lamp, shocking nearby residents.

Member of public
Witnessed the crash
The driver seemed to be experiencing a problem or a medical issue. Both of the side mirrors were missing, as the vehicle hit a car and other things.

Member of public
Witnessed the crash
We were inside when we heard a huge crash, the street lamp’s bulb fell off from the impact of the bus and rolled under the wheels.

The bus driver hadn’t been feeling well, experiencing symptoms resembling a stroke. Paramedics later confirmed it was a case of heat exhaustion. The driver forced himself to continue driving despite his condition. He sideswiped cars and a streetlamp, managing to drive 1.7 km before stopping at a red light. An alert student rushed to the driver’s seat, turned off the engine and guided the other students off the bus.

Student involved
Senior High School in Chiayi
I noticed his body going limp and I felt that something was very wrong, so I turned off the bus’ engine. I was nervous at the time, but I wanted to react before something life-threatening happened.

Mr. Hung
Senior High School Secretary
Fortunately, this student performed a heroic act and prevented a tragedy.

None of the students on board were injured and were promptly picked up by another school bus. The school gave the student a red envelope containing NT$200, commending him for his bravery and for preventing a serious crisis.

VP Hsiao back in Taiwan after 3-day visit to Italy for democracy forum

Taiwan’s Vice President Hsiao Bi-khim is back home after a whirlwind three-day visit to Italy, where she took Taiwan’s message of democracy and freedom directly to Europe. Speaking at the Ventotene Forum, Hsiao stood firm against China’s growing military and gray-zone pressure, declaring that Taiwan will continue to walk alongside the world. Her speech won strong support from European figures, but also clearly struck a nerve in Beijing, which protested her appearance. Now back in Taiwan, Hsiao says the trip sends a clear message that Taiwan will not be intimidated.

After a visit to the Island of Ventotene in Italy, Vice President Hsiao Bi-khim arrived safely back in Taiwan in the early hours of Monday.

Hsiao Bi-khim
Vice President
With my visit, I wanted to send a strong message: No matter the difficult situation we may be in, Taiwan will continue to walk alongside the world. At the Ventotene Forum, I took part in dialogues about freedom, democracy and peace. That is no coincidence. Freedom is the language we all speak, and peace is the aspiration we all have.

Hsiao stressed that no matter their size, the islands of Taiwan and Ventotene should be treated with equal amounts of respect.

Hsiao Bi-khim
Vice President
Taiwan is facing increasing pressure, due to military moves and gray-zone tactics. But just like our friends in Europe, we remain committed to our free and democratic way of life, while striving to preserve regional peace and prosperity.

Vice President Hsiao and Minister of Foreign Affairs Lin Chia-lung made a quick three-day visit to Italy, where they took part in the Ventotene European Conference for Freedom and Democracy, at the invitation of European Parliament Vice President Pina Picierno. In her speech, Hsiao stressed Taiwan’s determination to defend democracy and freedom amid China’s growing military threats, and described Taiwan’s resilience as that of a “War Cat.” Her speech won widespread applause from international participants, but also ruffled feathers in Beijing.

Mao Ning
China Foreign Ministry spokesperson
China has lodged serious protests with Italy and the EU side on the “Taiwan independence” politicians’ attendance at the conference in Italy.

Wang Ting-yu
Lawmaker (DPP)
China was shocked to learn what was happening. They dispatched personnel to disrupt the event and monitor what was happening at the forum. But security officers from the countries involved intervened and ordered them to leave. This all goes to show the close ties between Taiwan and several EU countries. Of course, this is a big diplomatic breakthrough and victory for Taiwan.

President Lai Ching-te shared the post of Hsiao’s arrival on his Facebook, adding that it was Taiwan’s right to engage with the world. He stated that Taiwan would continue to pursue opportunities for exchanges and collaboration internationally, so that the world can see Taiwan.
