Pet of the Week: Franki

By William Cortez, Community Writer

Our Pet of the Week is Franki, a male, two-year-old, brown and blue brindled American Bulldog mix.

 

Franki is a true dog lover's best friend. He is very affectionate, highly attentive, and as sweet as the day is long. A loving scratch on his head, and he's instantly your new best friend! He's good on a leash and loves to learn new tricks.

 

If you would like to make Franki, 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.
