How to resolve AdBlock issue? LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Lake County Animal Care and Control is seeking homes for several new canines this week, including one who survived one of the recent wildland fires.
The dogs available for adoption this week include mixes of German Shepherd, pit bull, terrier and wirehaired terrier, as well as a Rottweiler/chow mix named Cache who firefighters rescued from the Rocky fire.
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.
