Iām Fighting for Woof Houze ā and I need you to know why.
This is one of the hardest message Iāve ever had to write.
October of last year, I opened a new sanctuary for dogās a place I believed would change everything. I invested over a quarter of a million dollars, my savings, my heart, my time, my health. It was the most intentional, beautiful, healing space I had ever built.
And in four months, it collapsed.
Not because of bad business.
Not because we didnāt have clients.
But because the building was making dogs and humans sick⦠and someone knowingly allowed it.
We lost 60% of our business almost overnight.
My reputation took a hit for something I didnāt cause.
Iāve been in a legal battle ever since.
I had to move my entire program into a building that was never designed to hold it.
And Iāve been trying to keep the doors open.
Some of you helped us move when that happened and I will never forget it.
But what most people donāt know is this:
I havenāt recovered. Woof Houze hasnāt recovered.
Financially, emotionally, physically weāve been fighting for our life all year.
I couldāve packed dogs in here like everyone else just to make money.
I couldāve run daycare factories and cranked out obedience robots.
But I chose QUALITY over quantity.
I chose nervous dogs, misunderstood dogs, reactive dogs the ones who NEED us.
And Iām still choosing them.
Even when itās breaking me.
This business has saved hundreds of dogsā lives.
Weāve given away $40ā50K in coaching scholarships every year.
Weāve helped rescues, families in crisis, first-time guardians, dogs no one else would take.
And when things got hard, I didnāt walk away.
I even put my own dreams on hold writing my books, expanding my work just to fight for Woof Houze.
Because this isnāt just a business.
This is my lifeās work.
This is my purpose.
This is a lifeline for dogs and guardians who have nowhere else to go.
But Iām going to be brutally honest:
We are at the edge.
Financially exhausted.
Emotionally drained.
Mentally depleted.
And yet I still believe we can rise.
Not with pity.
Not with handouts.
But with community.
If we have ever helped you or your dog⦠please hear me.
We need you NOW.
Come shop in the Rewilded Market.
Book coaching or adventure camp.
Enroll in academy.
Show up to events.
Tell a friend.
Share our posts.
Bring your dog.
Spend $10 or $200 it all matters.
Stay ⢠Play ⢠Learn ⢠Shop with rhythm and relationship at the center.
We are still here.
We are still fighting.
And I refuse to let this place die quietly.
If Woof Houze has ever been a lifeline to youā¦
Please help us keep being that lifeline for others.
Iām not asking you to feel sorry for me.
Iām asking you to stand with me.
Because Iām still standing.
With love, honesty, and everything I have left,
Adia
