We are ecstatic to share that The Arrow Fund rescue pup Tri Like Penny was just named as 1 of 5 finalists in the American Hero Dog awards!! Thank you to ALL who voted for our hometown hero dog!
Penny was rescued by The Arrow Fund in 2020 after a driver saw her being thrown like trash from a car. Three of her four legs had been previously broken by her abuser. One leg had to be amputated, and she needed a year of surgeries, repairs, and extra care to heal.
Over that process, her amazing foster, Lindsey, fell in love with this pretty-eyed pup, and officially adopted Penny in 2021. They are truly a dynamic duo, and Penny now brings joy to students of all ages as a Certified Therapy Dog, but she is especially adored by the students at Assumption High School, where Lindsey teaches.
Penny and Lindsey continually volunteer to help The Arrow Fund communicate through our local media in an effort to help save other animal victims just like Penny.
Penny has stood proudly on three legs beside her “mama” at our Kentucky State Capitol to help The Arrow Fund bring awareness about animal abuse and the need for stricter animal welfare laws in our state on Kentucky Animal Action Day. Please join us this March when we stand together again for animals across the Commonwealth!
For all of those reasons and even more, Penny will ALWAYS be an American Dog Hero to us!
This astounding “super mutt” with a huge heart proves daily that, with enough tender loving care, you can overcome horrific abuse, continue to be a light for others, and persevere through life’s challenges with a bit of grit, grace, and plenty of love. 💙🤍❤️
