Excavator Breaks Open Street in China to Rescue Dog Buried Beneath Ground
Occurred on February 22, 2026 / Meizhou, Guangdong, China
Info from Licensor: "This is the touching moment that a Chinese family used an excavator to smash through a concrete road to save their pet dog after it became trapped inside an underground pipe. On February 22, 2026, in Meizhou, Guangdong, the video captured an excavator repeatedly chiseling into the ground as anxious family members stood nearby waiting for signs of movement below. The dog had fallen into a narrow underground drainage pipe and was unable to climb out on its own. As the machine broke apart the hard surface layer by layer, relatives assisted with tools to clear debris and widen the opening. Moments later, the trapped dog was finally pulled out from the exposed pipe. According to the owner, the dog had been part of the family for 14 years. He said the dog was not just an animal but a member of their household. After the rescue, the family bathed the dog and fed it, and it showed no serious physical injuries. The video ended with the freshly cleaned dog resting at home while its relieved family hovered nearby."
