LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Lake County Animal Care and Control has several new dogs, including little terriers and a big dog who lost her owner.
Dogs available for adoption this week include mixes of American Staffordshire Terrier, Brussels Griffon, chow chow, Labrador Retriever, pit bull, wirehaired terrier and Yorkshire Terrier.
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.
