How to resolve AdBlock issue? LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – The Animal Care and Control shelter is bursting at the seams this week with all sorts of dogs, big and small.
This week's adoptable dogs include mixes of Alaskan Malamute, boxer, Doberman Pinscher, German Shepherd, Labrador Retriever, mastiff, pug, Shar Pei, terrier and pit bull.
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.
In addition to the animals featured here, all adoptable animals in Lake County can be seen here: http://bit.ly/Z6xHMb .
