LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – The week starts off with seven dogs cleared for adoption at the county’s animal shelter.
A poodle, and dogs whose breeds include mixes of American bulldog, Rhodesian Ridgeback, heeler, boxer, Labrador Retriever, shepherd and pit bull are ready and waiting to meet you.
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.
