Helping Paws: New dogs, big and little

By Lake County News Reports | Jun 7, 2020
LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Lake County Animal Care and Control this week has several dogs of various sizes and breeds ready to go to new homes.

Dogs available for adoption this week include mixes of cattle dog Chihuahua, German Shepherd, husky, Lhasa Apso and pit bull.

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.

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”).

Because the shelter in place order remains in effect, call Lake County Animal Care and Control at 707-263-0278 or visit the shelter online at http://www.co.lake.ca.us/Government/Directory/Animal_Care_And_Control.htm for information on visiting or adopting.
