How to resolve AdBlock issue? LAKEPORT, Calif. – This week the county's animal shelter has several dogs from the working breeds available for adoption.
Labrador Retrievers, hounds and border collies, as well as boxers and pit bulls are ready to go to new homes.
Dogs that are adopted from Lake County Animal Care and Control are either neutered or spayed, microchipped and, if old enough, given a rabies shot and county license before being released to their new owner. License fees do not apply to residents of the cities of Lakeport or Clearlake.
If you're looking for a new companion, visit the shelter. There are many great pets hoping you'll choose them.
