An amazing dog that has learned to walk on its hind legs could be in line for a role in the next Harry Potter film.

Faith was born with a disability that meant her front legs didn't work properly but her family were able to teach her to walk and run anyway.

And now they think she could star in the Goblet of Fire after chatting to members of the Potter film team.

But the Stringfellow family added that a part in the film hadn't been confirmed just yet.

They think she could appear in a couple of scenes that show her after some kind of spell.

When the family got her there were worries that she may have to be put down but now around 18 months later she is doing really well.

And her unusual method of moving around has seen her appear on TV loads in the US where she even has a showbiz lawyer!
