Interesting dog, trained to walk with two feet.

There are video links to this amazing animal somewhere.

Her name is Faith, she was born that way. I beleive her owners trained her to hop using peanut butter on a spoon.:yum:

Hip problems are probably in Faith's future, but that's a lot better than being euthanized in the past...

The video said that, during winter, they'd bring Faith out in the snow and get her to hop back to the home.

The video is in the link above.

...looks like she's getting picked on, and happy about it.

Dogs accept disabilities far better than humans do.

I knew a newly blind dog (from some kind of eye pigment thing) who knew his whole house by smell alone and navigated his yard almost as well. He would just test a little with his paw before leaping ahead with the other doggies and followed them by ear and scent.

It was amazing.

Is this the same two-legged dog that was an IOTD, or a different one?
