Below are this week's available pets.
'Pirate'
“Pirate” is a male terrier-Chihuahua mix with a short brown coat. He is missing his right eye.
He's a favorite at Clearlake's shelter, where staff said he is used to temperament test all the other canines because he is so easygoing with all dogs.
He has a great personality without all the excess energy, walks well on a leash, and is current on shots and vaccinations. Pirate also is potty trained, neutered and comes with a free wellness exam.
Shelter staff said he's come from a bad situation and deserves a second chance to have a good home.
'Sammy'
“Sammy” is a senior male Miniature Pinscher.
Shelter staff said Sammy needs to find a new home. He's fun and loves to go for walks but does not like living in the shelter's kennel.
He was found wandering the streets, and staff now hopes to find him a loving home and a lap to sit on.
'Savannah'
“Savannah” is a young gray and white short hair mix cat who is offered for a reduced adoption fee.
Shelter staff said she has been a wonderful mother and now is looking for her place in the world. She loves attention but can be independent as well.
She also loves to play, is very confident around dogs and will not run away, and is housebroken. She can be spayed prior to placement for an additional fee.
Lots of kittens
