LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Lake County Animal Care and Control has a big selection of many types of dogs needing homes.
Dogs available for adoption this week include mixes of Australian Shepherd, bluetick coonhound, cattle dog, Doberman Pinscher, pit bull, poodle, Rhodesian Ridgeback, terrier and treeing walker coonhound.
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.
