From Our CEO
At Joybound People & Pets, every life changed begins with you. Your compassion fuels the joyful connections between people and pets, neighbors and communities — and powers everything we do.
This year, your generosity drove extraordinary growth in Joybound’s reach across the East Bay, where nearly six in ten households share their homes with a dog or cat. Together, we achieved more than 147,000 beneficial community impacts – an incredible 58% increase from last year! Thanks to you, tens of thousands more pet families are healthier and happier.
That impact shows up in every joyful adoption, every service or emotional support animal placed, and every rescued cat or dog who found a forever family. Through your support and the power of partnership, thousands more pets received low- or no-cost vaccinations, microchips, and spay/neuter services. And when guardians couldn’t afford critical veterinary care, your generosity made life-saving treatment possible.
When the Palisades Fire struck Los Angeles County, your compassion reached even farther. Joybound’s mobile team partnered with Los Angeles County Animal Care and Control, transferring adoptable animals north to free up shelter space for those displaced by the fires, helping families reunite.
Thanks to you and our partner Purina, hundreds of thousands of pounds of pet food and litter kept companions nourished and loved. Donor support also created Solo’s Play Yard, a joyful new space where adoptable Joybound dogs can run, play, and meet their future families.
Looking ahead, your generosity will help make Joybound’s next dream — our campus expansion, which will house behavior training and boarding day care for both cats and dogs — a reality, coming soon. Stay tuned for details.
Because of you, bold dreams for pets and the people who love them are becoming happy, healing realities every day.

With gratitude,

Susan Lee Vick

Your Compassion at Work
Every connection we make between a person and a pet has the power to change both — and your compassion makes that possible. Through your generosity, Joybound is so much more than an adoption center. It’s a place of healing and also of opportunity, where the human-animal bond thrives in countless ways.
Your support powers compassionate rescue and adoption programs and also vocational training through the Engelstad Grooming Academy, opening doors to meaningful pet care careers. It sustains a trusted veterinary clinic and also a mobile veterinary clinic that reaches pets and people who need care most. It strengthens a Training and Behavior Center and also a community hub that helps families stay healthy and together through low- and no-cost services, spay/neuter care, and behavioral support. It even fills empty bowls through Joybound’s FoodShare Pantry, ensuring no pet goes hungry.
Since 1991, this spirit of “and also” — the belief that compassion can always do more — has helped more than 53,000 dogs and cats find loving homes and countless others receive the care, training, and resources they need to thrive. Because of you, Joybound is not just where hope begins; it’s where it grows, multiplies, and connects us all.

“Our new dog Wrigley has been absolutely amazing! She immediately attached to me and never wants to be apart. Truly, she’s the perfect addition and has seamlessly become part of our lives.”

They’re Better Together
When Ruby’s guardian received a lively one-year-old poodle, she looked forward to all the joy and companionship the little pup would bring. But, in addition to that, she found herself caring for a high-energy dog with chronic ear infections, painful matting, and behavior challenges that quickly felt overwhelming.
When she reached out to Joybound’s Community Solutions team with a single request for help with spay surgery, they recognized the pair could use additional support, coordinated across Joybound’s departments. The Lynn & Delores McCoskey Clinic provided the medical care Ruby needed to treat her recurring ear infections, while the Engelstad Grooming Academy stepped in to perform a medically necessary grooming that relieved her discomfort and helped prevent future problems. At the same time, the Training Department developed a personalized behavior plan and offered one-on-one coaching to help Ruby’s guardian manage her exuberant energy. To make it all possible, Joybound ensured they could reach every appointment safely and on time despite mobility challenges.
“I’m so grateful for the help. You made a real difference in me being able to care for my dog. I want to live and I need Ruby to do it.”
– Ruby’s Guardian

Each Joybound service played a vital role in helping Ruby heal and in empowering her guardian to continue providing a loving home. “I don’t want to give her up,” she shared. “I know I can take better care of her than the next person. You made a real difference in me being able to care for my dog. I want to live — and I need Ruby to do it.”
Thanks to the generosity of Joybound supporters, Ruby and her guardian are now thriving — living proof that when care is collaborative and compassionate, both people and pets can flourish together.

A Second Chance Becomes a Lifelong Bond
Each animal who comes through Joybound’s doors is a testament to the healing power of love and opportunity. Oreo’s story, in particular, reflects the compassion, care, and second chances that define our mission, and the powerful bond that transforms lives, both human and animal.
When our team first saw Oreo in Sacramento, they knew she was special. She had grown up in an unhoused encampment and arrived at the shelter thin, itchy, and in need of some serious TLC. But behind those tired eyes was a spark of joy waiting to shine.
From the moment she arrived, Oreo won everyone over. Her signature “woo woo” greeting, her smile, and her unshakable sweetness made her a fast favorite at Joybound, especially with Adrienne, an Engelstad Grooming Academy student, who worked with Oreo and says “she changed my life.” Read Adrienne’s story at joybound.org/adrienne.

“She is sweet and snuggly and so much fun to work with. She helped me learn how to train better because of her intelligence and patience with me. She is an absolute joy!”
– Micaela Kahler, Shelter to Service Volunteer
Through Joybound’s Shelter to Service program, Oreo received medical care, training, and evaluation to become an Emotional Support Animal (ESA), a role she was clearly born for. She even made her debut at Unleash the Love, Joybound’s annual festival and adopt-a-thon, finding a new family within the hour.
Today, Oreo has been officially adopted and is living out her purpose as a trusted ESA, offering comfort, calm, and unconditional love to her person. From a rough start to a radiant new life, Oreo’s journey is proof that with compassion, care, and a little “woo woo,” every rescued cat and dog has the power to heal.
