FAITH the DOG

 

  

This is 'Faith'. Her name is Faith!
 

This dog was born on Christmas Eve 2002. She was born with 3 legs - 2 healthy hind legs and 1 abnormal front leg which had to be amputated. She obviously couldn't walk when she was born. Her mother didn't want anything to do with her. 
 

Her first owner didn't think that she could survive. Therefore, he was thinking of putting her down. It was at this time that her present owner, Jude Stringfellow, met her and wanted to take care of her. She was determined to teach and train this dog to walk by herself. That's why she named her 'Faith.'
 
In the beginning, she put Faith on a surf board to let her feel the movements of the water. Later she used peanut butter on a spoon as a lure and to reward her for standing up and jumping around. Even the other dogs at home helped to encourage her to walk. Amazingly, after only 6 months, like a miracle, Faith learned to balance on her 2 hind legs and jumped to move forward. After further training in the snow, she can now walk like a human being.

 

 

 

Faith loves to walk around now. No matter where she goes, she just attracts all the people around her. She's now becoming famous on the international scene. She's appeared in various newspapers and TV shows. There's even a book entitled 'With a little faith' being published about her. She was even considered to appear in one of the Harry Potter movies.
 

  

Jude Stringfellow has now given up her teaching job and plans to take her around the world to preach, that 'even without a perfect body, one can have a perfect soul.'
 

 

 


  


 


   


 


  


   


  


 


   


  

In life there are always undesirable things. Perhaps one will feel better if one changes the point of view from another direction.
  
I hope this message will bring fresh new ways of thinking to everyone and that everyone can appreciate and be thankful for each beautiful day that follows.
 
Life is the continual demonstration of the Strength of Life!!
