Rescued Dog Bronco on the Mend after Surgery

Bronco

Time for an update on rescued dog Bronco! Back in July, we introduced you to Bronco. Before he came into our care, Bronco was living on the streets and surviving on food scraps. He did not let us catch him easily and it took our volunteers three attempts before he was finally rescued. When we took Bronco to the vet, we discovered that he had a serious infection and a fracture in his heel that required surgery.

Four Puppies Rescued From Busy Main Street in Curaçao

Four Puppies Rescued From Busy Main Street in Curaçao

Fibi is not the only puppy we took under our care this week. One of our long-term volunteers was able to secure these three little babies. She spotted them out on a busy main street and took action. There was no momma dog in sight or any other dogs around for that matter. All three puppies were skinny as can be, and without help, they wouldn’t last much longer.

Dumped puppies rescued by CARF

Curaçao Animal Rescue Foundation Rescues Dumped Puppies

Dumped puppies rescued by CARF

This post is way overdue, but better late than never, right? When the corona-virus outbreak hit, quite some of our volunteers and foster families left the island. Meanwhile the number of dogs in our care has only grown amid the pandemic. Our shrinking team is busier than ever, and by the end of the day, we don't always have the time (or the energy) to update our social media. Anyways, we have been meaning to tell you about a litter that we rescued a while back. Here we go!

Rescued: Momma and puppies

Money was already tight, but ever since the pandemic hit our donations dropped to an ultimate low. While the daily care for our more than 100 dogs continues, we had to make the difficult decision to not take in any more dogs right now. Right? Right...? Wrong!

Luther

How homeless dog Luther was saved from the streets of Curaçao

CARF Luther

Meet Luther. This guy was picked up as a stray one week ago on Martin Luther King Day. Seems he had been roaming for a few days already. He was scanned for a microchip right away but unfortunately did not have one. He was covered in ticks and full of worms. Surrounding shopkeepers and security guards were informed to contact us if anyone came asking or looking for him and he was posted on the local Lost and Found-Facebook pages. To date no one has come forward.

Meet Emma | Severely Emaciated, Extremely Weakened, and Totally Helpless

Meet Emma | Severely Emaciated, Extremely Weakened, and Totally Helpless

No words can describe the suffering of this poor dog. Earlier today she was spotted at the parking lot of The Emma Church in Rio Canario; severely emaciated, extremely weakened, and totally helpless. We received a plea for help and went out to find her. She is so thin, so frail, so fragile. It looks like she could be knocked over by the wind. We’ve named her Emma.

Meet Dora, Our Latest Little Rescue

Meet Dora. This skinny (but not shy!) lady was found along the side of the road just a few days ago. During the vet's examination, she turned out to have a sub-temperature and plastic protruded from her anus. No wonder she has a low temperature if she doesn't get food to give her the energy she needs ...

Lily; Lost & Lonely in Curaçao

Lily needs your help. We barely had time to recover from the shock and disbelief of the condition of Graziela and her pups when we got a call about this helpless soul...
Lily is in critical condition, she was put on a drip immediately and given several medications. We are doing our best to save her. She’s a fighter and deserves a happy end. No creature should ever have to endure such neglect. What have we become as humans...?

Thanks to Lisa and Sven for not looking away, going out to look for her, and bringing her to our vet (Claus Clinic).

Many of you have stepped up for our landfill family of five and we are forever grateful. Please, if you can spare ANY amount to help us fight for and with Lily, all donations (no matter how small) are welcome.
