LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – As the new year arrives, Lake County Animal Care and Control's shelter is filled with dogs needing loving homes.
This new year's day dogs include mixes of American Bulldog, Australian Cattle Dog, beagle, border collie, Chihuahua, German Shepherd, golden retriever, husky, Labrador Retriever, Miniature Pinscher, pit bull, Shar Pei, shepherd and terrier.
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.
