Helping Paws: Another full house of dogs

By Elizabeth Larson | Jan. 26, 2015

LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Once again this week Lake County Animal Care and Control has a kennel full of dogs needing new homes.

Breeds ranging from Chihuahua and Pomeranian to Labrador Retriever and German Shepherd are available upon an approved application.

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 .

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”).
