Helping Paws: Labs, terriers and a Rottweiler
LAKEPORT, Calif. – Five dogs are ready for adoption this week at Lake County Animal Care and Control.
The dogs include a terrier puppy and several adult dogs that are mixes of Labrador Retriever, Pomeranian, Chihuahua and Rottweiler.
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.
