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.ย

Stay Involved

Thereโ€™s always something going on at The Arrow Fund! Whether itโ€™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.

A Second Chance for Justice League: From a shell to a soul again. ๐Ÿ’”

A week ago, we shared one of the most devastating cases to ever cross our path. In January, Justice League walked out of LMAS a healthy 67-pound dog. Just 60 days later, he was handed back to the system having lost 40 pounds. He was a ghost. A shell.

Weโ€™ve all been asking the same question: How? How does someone "adopt" a soul in good faith and then watch them wither away to nothing? We don't have an answer for that kind of darkness. But we do have a plan for the light.

The outpouring of love for this boy last Saturday was incredible.

Thank you.

But letโ€™s be clear: heartbreak isnโ€™t enough.

Justice Leagueโ€™s story, and the stories of so many others like him, must be the fuel that changes the law. We need to stop asking "how" and start demanding "justice" from our local and state governments.

The Good News: Justice League is doing great. Heโ€™s officially in a TAF foster home where the only "protocol" is safety and healing. Heโ€™s on a strict feeding schedule to help his body remember how to process food, and for the first time in a long time, he has a soft bed and toys to snuggle.

He is physically safe, but his spirit needs time. He needs to get stronger. He needs to learn that humans can be trusted again.

Want to do more than just hit "Like"? We are building a team of warriors. If youโ€™re ready to stand up and advocate for animals who have been tortured, abused, and neglected, we want you with us.

๐Ÿ“ง Email us: advocate@thearrowfund.org

Letโ€™s change the laws so stories like this stop happening. Together, we are Justice Leagueโ€™s voice. โœŠ๐Ÿ•

๐Ÿ’™ โ€œHi, Iโ€™m Loretta, and I think weโ€™re going to be best friends. ๐Ÿ’™

Iโ€™ve had a pretty rocky journey in my first year of life. I was almost euthanized in a shelter in Tennessee because there wasnโ€™t space for me, then rescued from a hoarding situation with my sisters, Dolly and Reba, from a โ€˜rescuerโ€™ that didnโ€™t have our best interests at heart. It was a lot, but I never stopped believing that life could be wonderful. Now, Iโ€™m ready to find my forever family.

Iโ€™m house trained and crate trained, and I get along with everything and everyoneโ€”dogs, cats, and kids. I walk beautifully on a leash, love car rides, and could be your perfect adventure buddy: ready to go anywhere, see everything, and even handle a crowd with ease.

But I also love home life! Give me my own bed, a comfy couch, some toys to squeak, and Iโ€™ll happily hang out by your side. I love gentle cuddles, soft kisses, and full-body wagging (bouncy pittie hops with my ears back and seal-like smiles thatโ€™ll make your heart melt).

Iโ€™ve been dreaming of the day I finally have a home where I can stay, feel safe, and be loved (just as much as I love you).

So, what do you say? Could you be the one to finally say:

โ€˜Thatโ€™s MY GIRL!โ€™ ๐Ÿ’™โ€

๐Ÿ“Fostered in Louisville, KY with The Arrow Fund
