This dog was born on Christmas Eve in the year 2002. He was born with 2 legs - He of course could not walk when he was born. Even his mother did not want him.

His first owner also did not think that he could survive and he was thinking of 'putting him to sleep'. But then, his present owner, Jude Stringfellow, met him and wanted to take care of him... She became determined to train this little dog to walk by himself. She named him 'Faith'.
Faith loves to walk around
now. No matter where he goes, he attracts people to him.
He is fast becoming famous on the international scene and has appeared on
various newspapers and TV shows. There is now a book entitled 'With a Little
Faith' being published about him. He was even considered to appear in one of
Harry Potter movies.

His first owner also did not think that he could survive and he was thinking
of 'putting him to sleep'. But then, his present owner, Jude Stringfellow,
met him and wanted to take care of him... She became determined to train
this little dog to walk by himself. She named him 'Faith'.
In the beginning, she put Faith on a surfboard to let him feel the movement.
Later she used peanut butter on a spoon as a lure and reward for him for
standing up and jumping around. Even the other dog at home encouraged him to
walk. Amazingly, only after 6 months, like a miracle, Faith learned to
balance on his hind legs and to jump to move forward. After further training
in the snow, he could now walk like a human being.










In life there are always undesirable things, so in order to feel better you just need to look at life from another direction. I hope this message will bring fresh new ways of thinking to everyone and that everyone will appreciate and be thankful for each beautiful day. Faith is the continual demonstration of the strength and wonder of life.
His present owner Jude Stringfellew has given up her teaching post and plans to take him around the world to preach that even without a perfect body, one can have a perfect soul'.
