LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Lake County Animal Care and Control has a full house of dogs available for adoption this week.
The dogs includes mixes of Labrador Retriever, terrier, dachshund, Chihuahua, shepherd and Jack Russell terrier, and come in a variety of ages.
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.
