Description
On June 22, 1993, Lou Dean William's beloved dog, Jake, rescued her from a life-threatening accident. "CBS This Morning" took cameras and crew to interview her on the horse ranch where she and her husband live. News of the dramatic rescue spread across the nation in newspapers and magazines. Angels In Disguise is far more than a rescue story. It reveals the sincere struggle of an isolated heart too often separated from those who matter most.
