LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – With “National Puppy Day” having just passed, the Lake County animal shelter has numerous puppies and several adult dogs who would like to make their home with you.
Border collie and hound mix puppies, labs and pit bulls are available this week.
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.
