Faith for 'Faith'- a True and Inspiring Story

I came across this story and would like to share it with you. The story is about a dog who born on Christmas eve in 2002 with only two legs. So, he was unable to walk. His mother even left him and so did his first owner. But his present master Jude String Fellow wanted to take care of him. She determined to teach and train this dog. 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 him up 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 learnt to balance on his hind legs and to jump to move forward. After training in snow, he can now walk like a human being.

Now, he has also appeared on various newspapers and TV shows. A book "With a Little Faith" is also being published now.

So this story gives us the message that whatever the thing it is, whatever aim we have, if we have compete unquestioning faith then, we have already achieved it. This message is truly a torch-bearer for us.

ਜੋ ਮਾਗਹਿ ਠਾਕੁਰ ਅਪੁਨੇ ਤੇ ਸੋਈ ਸੋਈ ਦੇਵੈ ||

ਨਾਨਕ ਦਾਸੁ ਮੁਖ ਤੇ ਜੋ ਬੋਲੈ ਈਹਾ ਊਹਾ ਸਚੁ ਹੋਵੈ ||੨||੧੪||੪੫||

Whatever I ask for from my Lord and Master, he gives that to me. Whatever the Lord's slave Nanak utters with his mouth proves to be true, here and hereafter. ||2||14||45||

My humble request to the reader is please circulate this story.
