Im reaching out to everyone...Nala needs your help!
Many of you know Nala as the gentle, loving therapy dog from Small Strides, who has brought comfort, joy, and healing to so many. Whether you've met her in person or simply heard stories about her calm, kind spirit, you know she's one of a kind.
To me, Nala is more than a therapy dog. She’s my best friend a little companion. She's been by my side through thick and thin and now I need to be there for her.
Last week, Nala was diagnosed with diabetes. We immediately began managing it with insulin and diet changes, and she was also spayed, a step that can help stabilise her condition. But despite our best efforts, her blood sugar has remained dangerously high.
Last night, she took a sudden turn for the worse.
This morning, I rushed her to the emergency vet, where she was diagnosed with Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA) — a life-threatening complication of diabetes. Her body is in crisis, and she needs intensive care over the next 48 hours to flush the toxins and stabilise her condition.
Time is critical. Without urgent treatment, DKA can be fatal, but with this intervention, she can get though this.
I’ve covered all of Nala’s vet bills up until now, but this emergency treatment is beyond what I can afford alone. That’s why I’m reaching out, with a heart full of hope and a deep love for littke Nalapuos im asking for your help.
If you’re able to contribute, no matter how small, it would mean the world to us. Even £1 will help. And if you can’t donate, please consider sharing this page. Every bit of support, every kind word, every share, it all helps.
Let’s get her back to her old self and back to doing what she does best, spreading love and healing to everyone around her.
Thank you.
Jenny & Nala
