LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Lake County Animal Care and Control this week has a full shelter of all kinds of dogs needing new homes.
The dogs available this week include mixes of German Shepherd, Great Pyrenees, Labrador Retriever, Pekingese, pit bull, Rottweiler shepherd, Shih Tzu and terrier, and include one remaining dog rescued from the Valley fire.
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.
In addition to the animals featured here, all adoptable animals in Lake County can be seen here: http://bit.ly/Z6xHMb .
