Faith, the 2-legged dog. something to think about...

This is a story about a dog who was born on Christmas Eve in 2002.

He was born with 3 legs - 2 healthy hind legs and 1 abnormal front leg which needed to be amputated..

He, of course , could not walk when he was born. Even his mother did not want him.

He was rejected and scorned.


Watch an amazing video of Faith






The puppy was just weeks old, missing his two front legs and found abandoned with his siblings in a box along a Central Florida road.

To Jude Stringfellow, hundreds of miles away in Oklahoma, it was a sign from God.

"God sends some people to Africa, and some people he gives two-legged dogs to," she said. "I'm obviously that one person."

Next month, she will adopt the puppy, Tanker, and bring him home to meet Faith, Stringfellow's Chinese chow chow, who also was born with two legs. Faith, now 6 years old, has dazzled and inspired people around the world with her ability to walk upright.

It's too soon to say whether Tanker, now about the size of a guinea pig and with a white stripe down the middle of his face, will also be able to walk upright -- it depends on his breed, which is still unknown, and how big he gets. Stringfellow might equip him with wheels instead. Either way, she already has plans for him.

Tanker will play the puppy version of Faith in a movie Stringfellow is working on about her dog. It will be a fictional story about a soldier who loses his legs in Iraq and finds the will to live when he meets Faith. Director and writer Ken Farmer said he will use makeup to lighten Tanker's fur so he better resembles Faith. Farmer is an independent filmmaker and said he hopes his movie, called Faith, becomes a sleeper hit.

As for Tanker, he has no idea that he's any different from his littermates.

"Right now, he's just a puppy," said Judy Walker, a volunteer at Pet Rescue by Judy in Sanford, who has been caring for Tanker. Judy Sarullo, the shelter's founder, met Stringfellow and Faith at a convention. When she saw little Tanker, she immediately thought of them.

For now, Tanker wriggles around, powering himself forward with his hind legs and clumsily moving the little nubs where his front legs should be. He's under Walker's constant care, even accompanying her to square-dancing class.

Stringfellow said she's certain that Faith and Tanker will get along well. The former English professor left her job when Faith came into her life about five years ago.

With a spoonful of peanut butter and a lot of determination, she taught Faith to walk.

The dog is somewhat awkward, but she has captured hearts wherever she has gone. She has walked across the stage on The Oprah Winfrey Show and other TV programs.

She and Stringfellow visited so many injured soldiers that the pooch was given an honorary commission as a sergeant in the Army.

"There are times when the doctors will call me and say, 'Listen we've got a soldier here who hasn't spoken in four weeks. Can you bring the dog up?' " Stringfellow said. "It won't take 30, 40 minutes before he's loosened up a bit."

They go on motivational tours across the country. Stringfellow has written books about Faith. When Stringfellow was teaching part time she liked to tell her students, "If I can make a dog walk upright, your homework will be turned on time."

Faith was born at Christmastime, just like Tanker. Stringfellow named Tanker in honor of her son, who is serving in Iraq. In the movie, in addition to playing the puppy Faith, Tanker also might play himself.

At the movie's end, Stringfellow envisions Faith turning to the puppy and saying, "We've got a lot of work to do."

Wonderful Uses For Petroleum Jelly

Below are but a few of the many uses people have found for the wonder ointment, Vaseline Petroleum Jelly:

1. Water Rings on Wood Furniture:-

Rub petroleum into damaged area with your fingers and let stand for a few hours or if possible overnight. In the morning remove excess jelly with a paper towel and buff with a soft cloth.

2. Super Glue Cap:-

Often after it's first use, the super glue cap ends up stuck fast to the tube and can't be used again. Put a thick coating of jelly inside the cap threads to keep it from gluing itself shut. This will work on any cap or lid that may stick.

3. To Shine Shoes:-

A thin coating of jelly on shoes, boots and purses will keep them looking great and repel water and road salt. Wipe on a thin layer and wipe off excess with a soft cloth.

4. Squeaky Doors:-

Quiet a squeaky door hinge with a coating of petroleum jelly on the hinge pin. Your door will be quiet and you don't have to worry about messy drips.

5. Keep Your Hands Clean:-

No matter what the chore, if it is messy rub on Petroleum Jelly before you begin. It will keep paint, stain, car grease, and garden dirt from embedding in your skin. It will soften your hands while protecting your skin. Just wipe off with paper towel or an old rag for clean up.

6. Hair Coloring:-

To keep hair color from staining your skin, apply Petroleum Jelly along hairline and ears before you begin.

7 . Cuts and Sores:-

When Petroleum Jelly first hit the market, it's purpose was for protecting cuts and scrapes by acting as a barrier to keep out moisture and bacteria.

8. Moisturizer:-

If you have sensitive skin Petroleum Jelly can be used as an all over body moisturizer. It contains no chemicals or perfumes.

9. Car Battery Posts:-

Stop battery post corrosion by applying Petroleum Jelly on the terminals.

10. Outdoor Lights:-

A thin coating of Petroleum Jelly on light bulb threads will prevent them from sticking when they need to be replaced.

11. Nail Polish/Manicure protector :-

Rub Petroleum Jelly on the skin around your nails before polishing. If you make a mistake it can be wiped off when your nails are dry and it softens cuticles at the same time.

12. Paint Cans:-

Petroleum Jelly forms an air tight seal when applied around the inside edge of the can.

13. Sticky Drawers:-

Apply petroleum Jelly along the runner on a sticky drawer to make it slide more freely.

14. Rough Feet:-

If you are like so many people, your feet are hard, calloused and dry. Apply petroleum Jelly to your feet after bathing or showering. Apply within the first three minutes of bathing before the moisture on your skin evaporates. It will make your feet softer, and act as a moisture barrier to keep your feet from drying out. Applying it right out of the shower helps absorption. You can also put it on your feet before bed and wear socks and you’ll wake up with soft, smooth, lovely feet.

15. Moisturize Chapped Lips:-

Apply as needed or if you have very bad chapped lips and need a quick remedy apply a thick coat cover with Glad Wrap-保鲜膜(those plastic that you use to cover your food to keep in the fridge) for 10 minutes, remove the Glad Wrap and leave the petroleum on your lips overnight. In fact, moisturize your whole body. You can use it on your hands, elbows, knees, wherever!

16. Makeup Remover:-

Use as you would any makeup remover. It removes makeup safely while softening your skin.

18. Remove false eyelash glue:-

Rub a little on your eyelashes to remove frustrating leftover glue from fake eyelashes.

19. Gloss your lips:-

Vaseline works great as a sheer, shiny gloss. ( You can also add Kool-Aid mix to the Vaseline to make your favorite lip gloss color. Yummy!)

20. Cheek :-

Look dewy. Apply to your cheeks for a radiant dewy glow.

21. Remove false eyelash glue:-

Rub a little on your eyelashes to remove frustrating leftover glue from fake eyelashes.

A thin layer on your wrist before
