LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Lake County Animal Care and Control has five dogs cleared and ready for new homes as this week begins.
The dogs available this week include mixes of Great Pyrenees, Labrador Retriever, pit bull and shepherd.
Lake County Animal Care and Control is adopting out dogs this week with a $50 discount – waiving the county adoption fee portion and costs for microchipping. There will will be costs for spaying and neutering dogs.
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.
