Walks on Leash | Potty Trained | Good with Dogs
Affectionate • Chill • Playful • Quiet • Snuggly

Faith’s life before rescue was spent being a mom — over and over again. She came to NTX Aussie Rescue from Humble, Texas after raising a few litters of puppies, and living a life more or less on the streets. Now? It’s finally her turn to just... be a dog.

And she is LOVING it.

Faith is a sweet, calm, deeply people-oriented girl who bonds quickly to her person. She may take a few hours to settle into a new environment, but once she realizes she’s safe, her whole personality blooms. By the end of her first day in foster care, she was already relaxing and choosing companionship over worry.

She does well with other dogs in calm, structured settings, but she doesn’t need a busy household to be happy. Faith is the kind of dog who thrives in peaceful homes — the “hang out together” type, not the constant chaos type.

She's pretty unbothered. Barking? Not her thing. Doorbells? No problem. Sirens? Sometimes she ooo's in unison - but only when the mood strikes. She LOVESSS her bed, and cuddles.

Her favorite hobbies include:
• Being a lap dog (despite not being lap-dog sized)
• Carrying around squeaky toys
• Enrichment puzzles and snacks
• Quietly existing next to her human
• Occasional playful moments followed by immediate nap - did we mention she LOVES LOVES LOVES her bed?

Faith doesn’t require tons of exercise or stimulation — she’s perfectly content lounging near you while you work, watch TV, or read. She simply wants companionship and consistency.

This girl is fully vetted and ready for her forever couch, cuddling fam.

Faith has a strong desire to please, is a quick learner of routine, and just wants to be a companion.

If you’re looking for a gentle, loyal best friend who just wants to love and be loved... Faith is waiting. 🤍
