Tahoe Tails — Adoptable Pets in South Lake Tahoe

Patches

Patches is a 5-year-old Rat Terrier mix who likes other dogs. Patches is a happy boy, he is very confident and though he isn’t a barky dog he would make a good watch dog. He weighs about 8 pounds.

Patches is neutered, microchipped, tested for FIV, and vaccinated. He is at the El Dorado County Animal Services shelter in Meyers, along with many other dogs and cats who are waiting for their new homes. Go to the Tahoe animal shelter’s Facebook page to see photos and descriptions of all pets at the shelter.

Call 530.573.7925 for directions, hours, and other information on adopting a pet.

For spay-neuter assistance for South Tahoe residents, go to online or call the animal shelter. Vouchers are available there also: bring $25 and a copy of a photo ID and a local utility bill.
