Let's Wake Up, Meet Up, and Clean Up!

Ready to make a beautiful difference in your community?

Tomorrow, October 12, is our Beautify MoVal Community Day of Service from 8 a.m. to noon.

Pet of the Week: Jellybean

Our Pet of the Week is Jellybean, a six-year-old Black Labrador Retriever mix.

Jellybean is sweet. Jellybean is playful. Jellybean is gentle. Jellybean is a rainbow of all the wonderful characteristics you'd want in a family dog. He's well-behaved and would be a great addition to just about any household looking for a dog that requires little - if any- training to fit into a new environment.

If you would like to make Jellybean or any pet from the Moreno Valley Animal Shelter part of your family, please contact the Moreno Valley Animal Shelter at 951.413.3790 or visit www.moval.org/pets.
