Jefferson County Humane Society
A Heart for Our Animals
The Jefferson County Humane Society is dedicated to providing high-quality care and finding loving forever homes for the animals of Monticello and beyond. We believe in the power of companionship and work tirelessly to ensure every pet receives the support they need to thrive.
Our Commitment to Community
Operating as a non-profit, we rely entirely on the generosity of our community, as we receive no government funding. Our Wolf Creek Pet Adoption Center serves as a safe haven where we prioritize animal health and wellness while striving to help as many animals as possible.
How We Make a Difference
Our operations are powered by a passionate team of volunteers and community partners, including our dedicated thrift shop, Wag the Dog, which helps fund our mission. We are especially proud of initiatives like the Epic Pups Program, a unique partnership that provides essential training and socialization to our dogs through a collaboration with the Jefferson Correctional Institution.
The Joy of Adoption
When you adopt from us, you aren't just finding a pet; you are starting a life-changing partnership built on trust and care. We take pride in ensuring our animals are healthy and ready for their new chapters, with every adoption including spay/neuter services, vaccinations, and microchipping to set you up for success.
Join Our Mission
Whether you are looking to bring home a new best friend, volunteer your time at the shelter, or support us through our thrift shop, there are so many ways to get involved. We invite you to visit us in Monticello or browse our adoptable pets online to see how you can make a difference in the life of a shelter animal today.
