How to resolve AdBlock issue? LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Visit the county’s animal shelter this week and you’ll find a wide array of canines waiting for homes.
Mixes available include hounds, shepherds, Chihuahuas, pit bulls, terriers, retrievers and Pomeranians, most spayed or neutered, vaccinated and ready for 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.
The following dogs at the Lake County Animal Care and Control shelter have been cleared for adoption (additional dogs on the animal control Web site not listed are still “on hold”).
