🏆 Homeward Bound is honored to receive the 2026 Harford Award for Service!

Monday night was a special evening celebrating the businesses and people who make our community such a wonderful place to live and work. Dr. Kristen Vance and our hospital director, Amy, were proud to represent Homeward Bound and accept this recognition.

Serving our community is at the heart of everything we do—from helping pets stay healthy at our Atwood Wellness Center to being there when unexpected illnesses and injuries bring families through our Urgent Care doors. We’re grateful for every opportunity to provide care, offer reassurance, and make a difference for pets and the people who love them. ❤️🐾

Thank you to our incredible team, our clients who trust us with their furry family members, and the rescue organizations and community partners who work alongside us. You are all part of this achievement.

A special thank-you to Amy for her dedication and leadership—and for sharing this memorable evening!
