SAN DIEGO COUNTY – If residents thought the El Niño rains this season lowered the region’s wildfire risk, they’re going to be disappointed. Unfortunately, the rains may have done the opposite: increased the fire hazards.

FALLBROOK – Willie is a small, male Chihuahua mix, light brown in color, about 2- to 3-years old. He is neutered and microchipped and up-to-date on shots. He is good with kids and other dogs but not cats (he barks at them). He has a docked tail. He is a very low-energy dog, very sweet and easy, but an escape artist. He supposedly can climb chain-link fence, so he needs a secure place, but he is adorable and easy on a leash. The health benefits of having a pet are well d...

The Cou...
