How Ellie arrived:Ellie was brought in by a community member on May 27th 2026. Why Ellie is the one for you: Say hello to Ellie! Ellie is a sweet, sensitive soul who will need to take her time building trust with new people. She will warm up and show her affectionate side, but will like her space from time to time.

Once she feels at home with you, Ellie is a happy, affectionate companion who will bring lots of love to her forever family. If you'd like to meet this fluffy friend, speak with our team today!

Story
WE ARE COURTESY POSTING THIS DOG FOR THE MORENO VALLEY ANIMAL SHELTER TO HELP THEM FIND A HOME. The shelter is severely overcrowded and desperately needs help finding adopters. Dogs are being turned in higher numbers than the shelter can accommodate; therefore, many are losing their lives simply due to a lack of cage space. We are helping get the word out about their immediate need. Please save this deserving pooch and clear a kennel for another dog in need today! This beautiful dog is located in the Moreno Valley shelter. Shelter needs to clear the kennels. They are over capacity, and all available dogs are in urgent need. Please visit or email the shelter directly to adopt.

Story
How this pet arrived:This pet was brought in by their previous owner on 6/2/26. Why this pet is the one for you:Meet Lila! Sweet Lila is a gentle soul who is looking for a calm, loving home where she can settle in at her own pace. She can be a little shy when meeting new people and experiencing new things, so she'll need a patient family that will give her the time and space she needs to feel safe and comfortable. Lila would do best in a quieter home and is not a candidate for busy households. If there are children in the home, they should be 8 years or older and able to respect her gentle nature. If you already have a resident dog, a meet-and-greet on campus will be required to help ensure a good match. For the family willing to let her bloom in her own time, Lila has all the makings of a wonderful companion and a loyal best friend. At SDHS:This pet has been vaccinated, microchipped and spayed. This pet is now ready for adoption! Primary Color: Blonde Secondary Color: White Weight: 43.8 Age: 3yrs 11mths 1wks

Story
How this pet arrived:Jude was brought in by their previous owner on June 3, 2026. Why this pet is the one for you:Jude is a charming guy who enjoys his walks and likes to do things on his own terms-more like a cat than a dog! He appreciates having his space respected and may take some time to feel comfortable with new people. The best way to build a relationship with Jude is to let him approach when he's ready and allow him to move away if he needs a break. Jude would thrive in a calm, patient home that can keep his world small while he settles in. Think quiet walks, cozy naps, and plenty of time to adjust. He may benefit from a Fear Free veterinarian and gentle, reward-based handling for any future grooming needs. With patience and understanding, Jude is sure to become a wonderful companion and loyal friend. At SDHS:This pet has been vaccinated, microchipped and spayed/neutered. This pet is now ready for adoption!Shy/Fearful Dog: This pet requires a virtual behavior consult, please watch THIS video to learn more about them.
