Benefiting Jonny and Xena's Foundation
The Jonny and Xena's Spread the Words Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non profit organization, was founded because of the miraculous story of Jonny and Xena. Jonny was diagnosed with Autism and lived a very quiet life until he met Xena, a severely abused dog who was given a less than 1% chance of survival. Miraculously Xena beat every odd against her, but her miracles didn't end there. Xena became Jonny's companion dog and changed the life of a boy living with Autism.
