Update: As I reported, Govita’s dental surgery was successful. She is responding well to her new at home dental care. However, the fundraiser fell short of the needed $1800 to help cover the dental surgery and care costs. The private loan coupled with costs I paid above and beyond funds raised has put us in a difficult financial position.
If you can help us reach the $1800 goal, it will restore the funds I had set aside for Govita’s wellness exam and vaccination due in late April while allowing me to continue repaying the private loan and save for a growth that Govita needs removed.
As my service dog and beloved companion, Govita means the world to me. Your support is greatly appreciated. Donations of any size help. By sharing this fundraiser, you can also help us reach our goal. Thank you so much.
……
Govita is my service dog and has been by my side for years. Now age 10, she needs dental surgery for a loose tooth that is bothering her and at risk of infection. Along with the extraction, she will receive a full oral health exam, assessment, and cleaning. This is very expensive for us after a number of unexpected expenses, including veterinary care, that have drained our reserves.
Last fall, Govita developed ear infections that took a few weeks to treat. In January, she began treatment for a ruptured anal gland. Her final antibiotic infusion was February 5, 2026, at which time the veterinarian recommended that the loose tooth be extracted along with providing an oral health assessment, exam, and cleaning. Her other teeth appear to be in good health, but this procedure is necessary to keep her healthy and comfortable.
Govita is not only my service dog upon whom I depend, but also a beloved family member for whom I’d do anything, including asking for help. Your donation and/or sharing of this fundraiser is greatly appreciated. Govita is the center of my world and she needs help. Thank you for considering our request.
