Zanna Introduces Life Lessons from a Dog Called “Faith”

Hey everyone!

Zanna here and today I wanted to share with everyone a really cool story about a very special dog…

This is ‘Faith’

This dog was born on Christmas Eve in the year 2002. He was born with 3 legs – 2 healthy hind legs and 1 abnormal front leg which need to be amputated. 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. Therefore, he was thinking of ‘putting him to sleep’.
By this time, his present owner, Jude Stringfellow, met him and wanted to take care of him.
She was determined to teach and train this dog to walk by himself. Therefore she named him ‘Faith’.

In the beginning, she put Faith on a surfing board to let him feel the movements. Later she used peanut butter on a spoon as a lure and rewarded for him to stand up and jump around. Even the other dog at home helped to encourage him to walk. Amazingly, only after 6 months, Faith learned to balance on his 2 hind legs and jumped to move forward. After further training in the snow, he now can walk like a human being.

Faith loves to walk around now. No matter where he goes, he just attracts all the people around him.
He is now becoming famous on the international scene. He has appeared on various newspapers and TV shows.

There is even one book entitled ‘With a little faith’ being published about him. He was even considered to appear in one of Harry Potter movies.

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’.

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.

Faith is the continual demonstration of the Strength of Life.

We are Zanna and Zynnia Jezek. You will remember us as Sisters To Success because this is the name we decided on with our mom and she is helping us to make a website for that name. I, Zanna, ,am eleven years old and my little sister, Zynnia, is eight. We love to blog and to learn about the cool things our mom does. One of the things our mom does is affiliate marketing. That is just one of the things she does, but she discovered a man named Mark whose son is making a lot of money doing this work and she shared that with us and we wanted to make a site where we can make money too – to save for all of the things we may need when we get older. Mom is teaching us all about it so we can save money for our future and grow up doing what we love to do. She says the word for that is “entrepreneur” and that is what we both want to be when we grow up. We have always been homeschooled and traveled all over the world. Mom says that this work is like play, and that we were born to play in life, that working is not our divine purpose and that life is meant to be enjoyed. We love our mom because she is so smart and so lucky in life. She travels all of the time and we get to meet so many cool people. Our brother Zachary is just like mom, but he is cooler because he is our big brother. We have a lot to learn and we are excited about learning. We are happy you came here and we hope you will sign up and come back again and again and tell all of your friends.
