LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – New puppies and dogs are waiting for adoption this week at Lake County Animal Care and Control.
This week's dogs range in age from 9 weeks up to 8 years, with most already altered 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.
