UPDATE on little Clover 🍀 after her FHO surgery:
Clover underwent much-needed FHO (Femoral Head Ostectomy) surgery yesterday, and is now recuperating with restricted/crate rest in her foster’s home. Her foster said this baby had a rough first night after surgery, but they are babying her with plenty of TLC, new chewy toys, and pain meds to keep her as comfortable as possible.
“Dr. Chris said her surgery went great, and she should have full mobility of the leg now as she heals and improves over the next few weeks,” said Thom Ham, Exec. Dir. of The Arrow Fund. “Once she has time to rest and heal, Clover will begin physical therapy to gain strength and feel so much better.”
This pretty, 9-month-old pup was rescued by The Arrow Fund back in October after she was struck by a vehicle and abandoned in excruciating pain by her previous owner. Once rescued, she underwent surgery to stabilize her hip with pins, but it became clear over the next few months that she needed an FHO to truly heal and use her hip without a lifetime of pain.
Clover is a loving, playful, sweet pup, and has made fast friends with her foster’s older dog and young family member (see pre-surgery pics!). She has sparkly, expressive eyes and a happy tail that make her so endearing. It’s easy to fall in love with this little dog.
Thanks to our AMAZING Arrow Fund family, this sweet girl’s life dramatically changed from one of abandonment and permanent pain to a lifetime filled with care, love, and plenty of playful puppy playdates ahead of her!
If you can help us pay for her FHO surgery (and eventual spay surgery), we would greatly appreciate any help!

We are inspired by and deeply grateful for all of the amazing young leaders in the Louisville Youth Philanthropy Council who chose to honor The Arrow Fund last evening with a generous grant for our mission to heal abused and severely neglected animals through medical care, advocacy, and education.
Thank you for taking the time to learn about our mission and work, for this incredible support, and for your generosity that will enable us to educate more youth in our community and save more animals from a life of misery and suffering.
Thank you, thank you, Louisville Youth Philanthropy Council - LYPC

UPDATE on the gorgeous, tri-colored pup who was injured and turned away by her owner: Lucky just had her check-up, and is blossoming now with love and care! She will be looking for her forever family soon!
This sweetheart pup who was unwanted by her owner after sustaining an agonizing injury is now doing SO WELL! Thank you to the amazing family that intervened and brought her to The Arrow Fund for help, and thank you to ALL who contributed to Lucky’s surgery, medical, recovery, and foster needs!
Look what a difference love, medical intervention, and great care have made in this sweet puppy dog’s life! She has a beautiful future now, thanks to our supportive Arrow Fund family!!
The vet said she is healing well, looks great, and will need another appointment in one month for X-rays to check her healing progress. Once she’s healed, she will also get her spay surgery.
Lucky’s foster said this pup is SUPER SWEET, loves children (including the foster’s young niece shown in pics), cuddles with humans and her other big dogs, is crate trained, potty trained, and is “just about perfect and a joy to foster.”
We think she’s one of the most beautiful pups we’ve seen, and have been guessing what mix of breeds Lucky might be! Can you guess??
The person who guesses closest to Lucky’s mix of breeds will win a fun T-shirt from The Arrow Fund! Make your guesses in the comments below (Facebook or Instagram) to win! We should have her DNA results back soon, and can announce the winner then.
Lucky is doing so well that she will be looking for a forever family soon to love and care for her after she is spayed and given the “all-clear!” from her vet.
If interested in adopting Lucky:

If you can’t adopt her, but want to help with her spay surgery, parasite preventative meds, and final X-rays, any donation is surely appreciated: click on the donate button/link, PAYPAL or VENMO (find us under “Charities”) @thearrowfund, or mail: PO Box 1127, Prospect, KY 40059.
