Signs of Love w/ Jenni Williams

Jenni Williams’ husband was serving in the British Army, which led them to move to the U.S. on assignment for a period of time. Due to the circumstances, Jenni was unable to work with her visa status. To use her time, she decided to do volunteer work instead, landing on fostering. It turned out to be one of the most important decisions she ever made. Over time, Jenni ended up taking in 15 dogs over the years. Later, she had a daughter, Eve, who was born with a severe disability of a very rare chromosome condition, as well as epilepsy. However, even though Eve is only able to show love in a nonverbal manner, Jenni is able to understand the nontraditional communication thanks to her canine soulmate, Jess, and the other dogs she had fostered. All of these experiences inspired her to write a book: Rescued — Adventures with Down and Out Dogs.
