Hello, my name is Dennis. I am a 2-year-old beagle hound. I was given another opportunity to cycle back through the Epic Pups Program in hopes that I can catch someone’s eye and find my furever home! I am very shy around people who I don’t know. However, once I get to know you, I am very friendly. I love to snuggle, so if you’re lonely I will be the best company! I am very energetic. My favorite thing to do is run and play with a frisbee and/or football. Please adopt me, I’ll make you the happiest pet owner ever!

Love, Dennis.

Hello, my name is Levi! I am 10 months old. I am mixed with a little Pit, a little Lab, and a little Great-Dane. I’m black and white with beautiful brindle patterns on my face, ears, and legs. I have a twin sister who lives 5 houses (crates) down from me; she’s my bestfriend and favorite playmate. I love being outside exploring all the different sights and smells. Cheetos are my favorite tasty treat. I am super blessed to be in the Epic Pups Training Program, because I’m learning to be such a good boy. I can’t wait to graduate and find my furever home with you!!

We recently took in six sweet kittens. They are now safe and getting the love and care they deserve. We're currently looking for supplies such as wet and dry kitten food, toys, treats, and any financial assistance to cover spay/neuter surgeries, vaccines, worming, medical bills, etc. Anything and everything will help as we work to give these little ones the best possible start in life! ❤🐾 Thanks in advance.

AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION & PLEASE SHARE!!

Meet Harley! She's a beautiful 6-year-old black and white pointer with a heart full of love and energy. Harley is wonderful with children but not good with other dogs. She's very active and loves to run, always ready for a fun adventure. She does enjoy barking- think of it as her way of chatting with you! Harley is super friendly, sweet, and can't resist a good treat (but who can?). She's looking for a loving home with people who will give her plenty of affection, attention, and the happy life she deserves. 🐾❤️

If interested in adopting contact Wolf Creek Pet Adoption Center/Jefferson County Humane Society at (850) 342-0244 or visit us on-site at 2123 E. Washington Hwy in Monticello, Fla. Hours are 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Wednesdays through Mondays.

Meet Theodore, a very loving and affectionate male kitten who thrives on attention! He's full of energy and absolutely loves playing with his cat toys. Theodore does great with dogs and is wonderful with children, making him the perfect family companion. Once he gets to know you, he'll be your best friend, always ready for cuddles and conversation. This talkative little guy also enjoys his nap time just as much as his playtime, making him the perfect balance of fun and sweetness. ❤
