A two-legged dog who has learned to walk on her own is inspiring disabled soldiers all over the globe and showing them that anything is possible. Faith, an 8-year old labrador-chow mix, has become a frequent visitor at army bases and hospitals around the country and the world, where she inspires disabled veterans to push forward. Faith has had such an impact on the military that in 2006, she was named an honorary sergeant in the U.S. Army!
Here is a video that tells the story of one of the most remarkable and inspiring dogs you will ever meet.
