Jonny was even able to make a video with Xena for April is Autism Awareness Month and Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Month. They did a great job, and the love they have for each other is evident in their eyes!
Xena received the highest of accolades when she was named the ASPCA 2013 Dog of the Year!
From death's door, Xena fought back to become the guiding light and best friend to a boy who needed her. Jonny's mother said it best: “I really believe God had a plan. These two were destined to be together — to save each other at a level that humans just can’t understand.”
Watch Xena's rescue video below and learn more details about how she became Jonny's best friend. Follow them on their Facebook page, and be sure to share their beautiful story with your friends and family on Facebook!
