Share Away! Let's make some money for this amazing organization!

WholeLottaLuv Pet Collective (fka Puppy Hill Farm Animal Rescue) does great things! It's a small independent rescue that focuses upon saving dogs and cats in rural shelters and in county shelters who have run out of time! They also help the community with a food pantry and other resources!

This year alone already, WholeLottaLuv Pet Collective has rescued and rehomed more than 575 dogs and cats! They held a groundbreaking kitten surrender event with Operation Catnip and several other community partners for the Melrose/Keystone area earlier this year that resulted in almost 200 kittens and cats being neutered/spayed and rehomed (the stipulation for surrendering kittens was that the mommas were also spayed).

The incredible Samm Wehman Art is donating her amazing talent and supplies to paint a beautiful mural at WholeLottaLuv's new location on 229 NW 75th Street (the old Oaks Veterinary Clinic). For $250, you can have your pup or cat painted on the wall in the lobby at WholeLottaLuv's new location. All proceeds go to the charity! Your pup or cat doesn't have to be a rescue, they just have to support rescue!

We're putting our Snowball (he's an Alumni of WholeLottaLuv Pet Collective that we foster failed) on the wall!. Scan the QR or visit https://givebutter.com/samm-wehman-paint-your-pet-potrait-qde4oh.

As soon as you donate, WholeLottaLuv will reach out for a picture of your pup or cat who you want to have painted in the lobby at their amazing new location!

We are so excited to announce that Samm Wehman Art is doing a Pet Portrait fundraiser for us! Just like you may have seen at Operation Catnip, Samm Wehman Epstein is going to paint your pet's face on the lobby walls of our new facility for a $250 donation! How fun is that?!?! You pick the the headshot, and Samm will make it happen!

You can sign up and donate at the link below and/or you can come to our Open House with St Francis Veterinary Care on

October 25th 1pm-4pm at 229 NW 75th St, Gainesville, FL 32607

to see our new facility and check out the wall space. As of now it's a blank canvas, and we can't wait to see everyone's cherished pets on our walls! Thank you, Samm! And thank you for your support!

October is Pit Bull Awareness Month! 🐶💙

At Camp Run-A-Mutt, we’re celebrating the lovable, loyal, and often misunderstood bully breeds — because we know there’s no such thing as a bad dog.

These dogs have an unfair reputation that doesn’t match their true, gentle nature. In our latest blog, we explore how that stereotype started, why it’s time to change the narrative, and how Camp Run-A-Mutt proudly supports every dog through individualized temperament testing — never breed restrictions.
