WALL OF FAME
FUR-EVER SPONSORS
With a one-time $300 donation, you will receive a vinyl banner to be displayed EVERY YEAR at ALL our events. The banner will include your pet’s photo, your name and your business logo. We call this FUR-EVER Wall of Fame. ❤️🐾
Our goal is to display every pet that lives here in La Jolla. Your pet gets a forever memory, and your donation helps homeless animals.

About Us
Our Beliefs and Mission
We believe that bringing our pet-loving community together allows us to raise money to be donated to animal rescues. We make a positive ongoing impact while having a great time with our four-legged family members.
Our mission is to raise funds by organizing events for pets and their owners in the community. We donate all proceeds to animal rescues and local pet charities.
