Ollydog Threads

05/07/2023

Happy Fourth of July from our fury family to yours! 🫶🏼🇺🇸

👉🏼 Life update:
The future of Ollydog Threads is still yet to be determined. Personal struggles, knee problems, and other responsibilities have kept me from doing what used to be fun. At this point, anything related to sewing causes me extreme anxiety. I am completely confused as to how this happened. I struggle to figure out where to go from here.

The good news? I will be seeing a new Orthopedic Doctor for my knee on July 11th. I have never been so excited to see a doctor in my life! Nothing has been helpful thus far, and summer is my FAVORITE time of year. So, I just say “screw you, wonky knees”… and keep going. Pain or no pain, fun is happening this Summer!! 🌞

I am hopeful 🤞 that Ollydog Threads will be BACK in the near future. We sure had fun, and I want that to happen again!!

Hello everyone!! 🫶🏼
Happy June!! I’ve have some people contact me about when we will be up and running again, so I thought it was time for a little update!
The truth is, I still don’t know. I am currently involved in projects that NEED to get finished around our home, and I have been busy with family. There is also the issue of a very annoying and painful knee injury. I have been doing Physical Therapy and have had cortisone injections, trying to avoid surgery. Navigating the healthcare system just plain sucks! Trusting doctors to give you the best information has been daunting! If any of you have suffered with knee problems, feel free to throw out suggestions in the comment section, or DM me. I feel like it’s worth getting another opinion. I mean, I kinda need my knees! 🤷🏻‍♀️
Olly also needs me to be in good physical shape- I love my adventure time with him, and my mental well being counts on it!
I do miss all of the connections with all of you, and making your pets look so dang cute! Ollydog Threads is not over… it may just take a few months to get back in tip top shape! Thank you SO much for the support- I genuinely am very grateful for everyone who loves us!!
❤️ Chris + Olly

To ALL of our ODT supporters ❤️
I have made the difficult decision to take a break from Ollydog Threads.
I’ve had ongoing problems with my foot, and it turns out, I will need surgery in the near future 🥵

I need to take the time to heal, get my life sorted, and practice making brand new stuff. We’ll be back for sure, so it’s not goodbye! So, feel free to share and tag us in your pics! This will help keep our spirits up!

Personally, I am so thankful for all of the opportunities that this platform have provided us- Olly and I both have met so many wonderful people AND pets during our journey thus far! We love you all!

🫶🏼 We will see you again, we promise!!
Love,
Chris & Olly

Alexander. Our house velcro cat. He loves his bandanas and his Mom. He is not too sure about the sweater yet… but he’s been caught hanging out on the bathroom rug near the heating vent, one too many times. I had to throw an old Valentine’s bandana on him, so you must know that our Valentine’s Threads will be dropping very VERY soon! Like in 6 days soon!! ❤️
Stay tuned for some sneak peeks!!

Willie has no problem with this season we call winter. It probably has something to do with that cozy flannel infinity scarf he’s wearing.

Billy Goat is a strong, courageous fighter. She has feline leukemia and is not doing well. and his family took Billy Goat in to give her a fighting chance. They knew the risks, but they did it anyways, because she needed a family. We are kitty lovers, and are so very thankful for Phil and his family for loving and caring for this sweet girl. For 3 weeks she’s known what it feels like to be loved. That is everything. We love you Billy Goat!
