Pet of the Week: Melody

By Ruby Stephenson, Community Writer
January 7, 2026 at 03:38pm. Views: 272

Our Pet of the Week is Melody, a female grey and white, seven-month-old Pit Bull mix.

 

Taking walks, playing with toys, and getting treats are all things Melody loves, but what she truly enjoys most is people! Melody is an incredibly social and affectionate dog who can’t resist that affectionate nuzzling to show you how much she adores you. If you’re looking for a sweet furry cuddlebug, look no further. Melody will hit a high note in your life!

 

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

 

The Moreno Valley Animal Shelter is located at 14041 Elsworth Street in Moreno Valley.

 

Note: Our featured pets tend to get adopted very quickly when they are shared in our newsletter and on social media. If they have already been adopted when you inquire, please consider one of the other loving pets in the shelter who are also looking for their forever homes.
