Honor Wall
Our Honor Wall is adorned with a growing collection of customized tiles honoring two- and four-legged friends who have touched our lives. Tiles are available for a $300 donation. The tile will be permanently displayed in the public garden at Joybound’s headquarters in Walnut Creek, California, plus each donor receives a complimentary replica tile for personal use.
