Much like Odysseus in Greek mythology, Faust is intelligent and meticulous. You can always see a glaze in his eyes planning every possibility and solution out in his head. He doesn't like physically demanding work and prefers to go about things in his own way. He'd sooner strategize a way for a fish to jump straight into a bucket as opposed to charging at it and doing all the work. He takes his time with things and is actually showing hope in learning a method to talk to his handler, which involves him putting his paw beside words written out on an old tarp. Apart from his heroic Greek counterpart, he is pretty shy and doesn't like anyone in his personal bubble. He sometimes has a low growl when anyone intrudes on that invisible barrier, but he has never tried to hurt anyone. He will move if they make him too uncomfortable.
