Story
Evette was saved off the euthanasia list. She’s looking for her happily ever after. Evette had entered a shelter after she was abandoned by her family. She was found in the back yard of a home that caught fire, but no one claimed her, so into the shelter system she went. She was one of the few lucky ones who were rescued and is currently in a foster home in Los Angeles. Evette loves car rides, does amazing with kids. She is spayed and current on her vaccinations and also has lots of energy so she would do best with a home that has a backyard and someone who will walk her every day. Her foster mom says of Evette they are still working on introductions to other dogs. Her default is interest and wanting to play, although she doesn’t know how to play yet so she can be a little rough, mouthy. For these reasons, if joining another home, it would be best with a dog that is tolerant and well adjusted. She’s still learning and adapting well overall in her foster home. With a slow introduction and an experienced handler her confidence will start to shine.

URGENT - ON DEADLINE LIST - SHELTER IS FULL! 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. Dogs are being turned in higher numbers than the shelter can accommodate, therefore many are losing their lives due to lack of cage space. We are helping get the word out of their immediate need. Please save this deserving pooch and clear a kennel for another dog in need today! PLEASE RESPOND TO THIS POST IF INTERESTED IN FOSTERING FOR A RESCUE UNTIL THEY FIND A FOREVER HOME IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO ADOPT BUT CAN HELP BY FOSTERING (INCLUDE YOUR LOCATION/CITY AND HOW LONG YOU CAN FOSTER) This beautiful dog is located in the Moreno Valley shelter. Please feel free to reach out to us with questions. Thank you! DESTINY - ID#A537588 I am a female, blue and white Pit Bull Terrier. The shelter thinks I am about 2 years old. I weigh approximately 48.00 lbs. STAFF NOTES: Once back at the shelter and after some pets and baby talk, she warmed up and became very sweet and affectionate. She's playful and gentle. 08/31/24 Noticed that her kennel was still dry this morning. Believe she is house trained. Took her for a walk. Easy to leash and walks super well on the leash, no pulling and lots of wiggles. Still a little stressed as she wasn't able to relieve her self on the walk, either. Will try again, later Very sweet girl. She is very energetic and friendly with people, not sure about other dogs Moreno Valley Animal Shelter 14041 Elsworth Street, Moreno Valley, CA 92553 951-413-3790 Adoption hours: Tuesday - Friday 10 am - 5 pm Saturday 10:30 am - 3:30 pm Closed Sunday-Monday & Holidays
