SIMON SURVIVED THE UNTHINKABLE. NOW HE NEEDS YOUR HELP!

Many of you have seen the heartbreaking video circulating online of two motorcyclists desperately trying to help a Great Dane running across the 32nd Street overpass. Sadly, in the confusion and fear, Simon leaped over the edge(video in the comments). How did he survive? That’s a question we’ve been asking ourselves all weekend. Knowing how differently this could have ended makes us even more grateful that Simon is still here.

On Friday, many of you saw the video of our team unloading sweet Simon at Dogwood Veterinary Clinic. Today, we have some encouraging news! Simon will be undergoing surgery to repair his severely fractured leg. Due to the location and severity of the fracture, surgeons will need to use two plates and a pin to stabilize it. While this is a significant injury and a major surgery, we can’t help but feel incredibly fortunate. Considering the distance Simon fell, we know his story could have ended much differently.

But now we need YOUR help! The reality is that our medical intakes continue to climb, and unfortunately, so do the expenses. When your mission is dedicated to helping animals who have suffered abuse and neglect, you go into every situation knowing that many will require extensive and often lifesaving medical care. But knowing the challenges doesn’t make the financial burden any easier. Every time we accept another animal with significant medical needs, we’re making a commitment to see them through their recovery, regardless of how long that journey may be.

Simon didn’t ask for any of this. He was simply a frightened dog trying to find safety, and somehow, against incredible odds, he survived. Now it’s our turn to give him the second chance he deserves. If you can donate toward Simon’s surgery and recovery, PLEASE DO! Every dollar makes a difference, not just for Simon, but for the next animal who desperately needs our help.

Can’t donate? You can still make an incredible difference! Simply commenting, sharing, or tagging a friend helps our posts reach a larger audience. Sometimes the difference between reaching a few hundred people and reaching thousands comes down to supporters taking just a few seconds to interact with a post.

Simon survived the fall. Now let’s help him through the recovery!

Thank you for continuing to stand beside The Arrow Fund and the animals who need us most. We truly couldn’t continue this work without you!

A little Dalton update: our tiny survivor is healing from surgery and doing well! 🐾

After everything Dalton endured, we are so grateful to share this hopeful update. His broken leg still needs time to heal, and his recovery continues with plenty of rest, carefully restricted activity and follow-up care. We’re taking it one day at a time, giving him the chance to safely work toward all the puppy adventures ahead.

To everyone who donated toward Dalton’s care, shared his story, or has been checking in and cheering him on - thank you! Your generosity helps provide the surgery, medications and ongoing veterinary care that make his recovery possible.

You saw a tiny puppy who had suffered terribly and surrounded him with love. Because of this village, Dalton gets the chance to grow, play and discover how good life can be. 🫶🏼
