ANIMAL RESCUES ONLY: RESCUE@THEARROWFUND.ORG

The Arrow Fund

We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that rescues, rehabilitates, and rehomes animal victims of extreme torture, abuse, or neglect. We also educate, raise awareness, and advocate for the humane treatment of animals.

Our Vision

Healing abused and severely neglected animals through medical care, advocacy, and education-The Arrow Fund Mission Statement.

The Arrow Fund is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that provides veterinary treatment, fostering, and rehoming of animals who have been victims of extreme torture, abuse, or neglect. We also educate the public regarding the ongoing problem of animal cruelty and the link between animal abuse and human violence and advocate strengthening our local, state, and national animal welfare laws.

When The Arrow Fund is contacted, and the case meets our criteria, we take legal possession of the animal and transport them to a veterinary facility for treatment. Following treatment, the animal recovers in a foster home; they can acclimate to living indoors and be assessed/retrained in preparation for adoption into a permanent home. 

 

Stay Involved

There’s always something going on at The Arrow Fund! Whether it’s through outreach at a music festival, an important deadline related to changing legislation, or a fundraising event, we love the opportunity to meet and interact with the community.

UPDATE on the TAF puppy who was beaten and thrown away:

While we are still learning the severity of her injuries, we wanted to share information as we have it.

Although we may never truly know what happened to baby Singer, we have been told by medical experts that her injuries appear consistent with both stomping and strangulation.

She has a skull fracture. Both of her front legs have multiple fractures. She also has hyphemia (bleeding inside the eye), believed to be associated with the trauma from being choked.

What’s next for puppy Singer:

Normally, when we see dogs with multiple leg fractures, orthopedic surgery is the next step. Unfortunately, because of her extremely young age and location of her fractures that are so close to her growth plates, surgery right now carries significant risks.

For the next month, she will undergo weekly splint changes and continued monitoring as we give her tiny body a chance to heal. A huge thank you goes to her skilled medical foster Sarah T.! ❤️‍🩹

Even with everything we are doing, there is still a high probability that surgery may ultimately be necessary.

How you can help:

1) Please keep sharing her posts! We believe someone in that area (the boys found her yelping in a recycling bin around S. Jackson St. in the alley by the park) where she was thrown away may have a security camera or may have even seen something! If you have ANY info., please call the Louisville Metro Police Department tipline at 502-574-LMPD. 📞

2) This pup was horribly beaten, and will need longer-term foster care and probable future surgeries. Her medical bills are (and will continue to be) expensive. If you have not already donated, would you consider even a small gift to help her? We very much appreciate every donation and ALL of your support!

Behind every survivo

🚨 WE NEED YOUR HELP! 🚨

Yesterday evening around 5:30 PM, The Arrow Fund received a call from boys who were walking on S. Jackson Street (the alley way by the park) when they heard the cries of a dog nearby.

After searching for a bit, they finally realized the sound was coming from inside a recycling bin, where they found small black and tan puppy who had been thrown away like trash.

This baby was alive, showed signs of being beaten, had a noticeable injury to her leg and was starving.

We need the community’s help!

If you live in or around S. Jackson Street, please check your doorbell cameras, security cameras, or any other footage you may have from yesterday afternoon and evening. Even something that seems insignificant could help determine how this puppy ended up there.

🚔 The Louisville Metro Police Department has been notified, and we hope someone will be her voice! Please contact the LMPD Tipline with any info
502-574-LMPD.

📷 If you are missing a young black and tan puppy, please message TAF directly with PHOTOS and identifying information: rescue@thearrowfund.org

❤️ To the two young men who heard her cries and didn’t continue walking: THANK YOU!! Because of you and your efforts to find help, she is SAFE now and will receive medical treatment through The Arrow Fund for her BROKEN LEGS.

Please share this post, especially if you live, work, or know someone in the S. Jackson Street area. Someone may have seen something. Someone may have footage.

Arrow Fund Family: please meet this little sweetheart we named Singer! (we will share more photos of her soon)

Please help us with medical treatment for Singer’s broken legs, vaccinations, spay, and foster care if you can. Every donation helps, and we are SO appreciative. Your donations enable us to say yes to those animals who need urgent emergency help!
