How to resolve AdBlock issue? 
LAKEPORT, Calif. – With the arrival of the new year there is a big bunch of dogs available for adoption at the county’s animal shelter.
Canines of many breeds, types and sizes are available for those wanting to begin 2013 with a new addition to their family.
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.
The following dogs at the Lake County Animal Care and Control shelter have been cleared for adoption (additional dogs on the animal control Web site not listed are still “on hold”).
