Hi furiends,
Just want to provide a little update. I sustained a spinal injury nearly a decade ago that required surgery, but the idea of anyone touching my spine terrified me at the time, so I chose to hold off. Unfortunately, I’ve recently reinjured it and the pain has become quite debilitating. After meeting with my care team, it’s clear that I’ll need surgical intervention and time to properly heal. Because Nova Dog Bakery is a one-woman operation, this unfortunately means I won’t be able to continue running my business for the time being.
You’ve all supported me, my pups, and the rescue dogs we help more than you know. Every purchase you make doesn’t just keep my little bakery going—it directly supports dogs who desperately need a second chance. And right now, rescues everywhere are struggling more than ever. Intake is high, donations are low, and so many dogs are waiting for their miracle.
While I take this time to focus on healing, I hope you’ll keep the rescue community close to your heart. If you’re feeling the spirit of Christmas this year, please consider donating to a rescue, sharing their posts, or helping in any way you can. Even the smallest kindness can change a dog’s life.
Thank you for the love, patience, and support you’ve always shown me and my business. I’ll be back as soon as I can. ❤️🐾
