Well, Corporal Carlton's first official week on the job was exhausting with all the extra attention.
Luckily there were plenty of pets and belly rubs to be had. A swing shift deputy even let him catch a quick nap while on break. He's headed home for his weekend (which curiously coincides with turkey and stuffing...hmm...).
Our office is incredibly thankful for Corporal, and we want to thank the people who make his presence possible:
All American Pet for supplies, food, and grooming
VCA McKenzie Animal Hospital for checkups, vet care, and medication
Working Dogs Oregon for finding him, assisting with training, and making this possible for our staff!

Please consider others if you choose to drink or use drugs:
🚙 Plan your safe ride home ahead of time
🍺 If you drink or use drugs, do not drive for any reason
🔑 If you know someone has been drinking or using drugs, don't let them drive
💃 If you host a party with alcohol, make sure all guests leave with a sober driver
👍 And please, always wear your seatbelt!

Lowell man arrested after search of Lowell, pursuit in Washington State
On November 15th at 12:30 a.m., Lane County Sheriff’s deputies responded to a menacing that occurred in the 400 block of Carol Street, Lowell. It was reported that Marcquis Andrew Lee White, 33, of Lowell, had menaced several people with a handgun and then fled in a vehicle.
Deputies responded with an armored rescue vehicle, drone, and K9 to search for White. They located his vehicle crashed nearby with a firearm inside. An alert to remain indoors was sent to residents in the area out of an abundance of caution.

Meet our newest (and fluffiest) special deputy – Corporal Carlton!
I am proud to introduce the newest special deputy on our team: Corporal Carlton, a happy, fluffy goldendoodle. Corporal was sworn in with much fanfare today and got right to work.
Corporal joins the Sheriff’s Office as part of our staff health and wellness initiative. The program prioritizes the financial security, mental health, spiritual fulfillment, and physical health of our staff. In a profession where deputies, dispatchers, and corrections staff regularly encounter stressful and high-pressure situations, Corporal Carlton offers comfort, calm, and connection in a way only a dog can.
Trained as a comfort canine, Corporal will visit various divisions of the Sheriff’s Office, including patrol, dispatch, corrections, and administration. His role is simple but powerful – to bring a moment of peace, reduce stress, and remind our team that taking care of their own wellness is just as important as taking care of the community.
Corporal’s calm temperament and cheerful personality make him a natural fit for the job. He’s always ready with a wagging tail, a gentle nudge, or a warm cuddle. Beyond internal visits, Corporal will also make occasional appearances at community events, helping strengthen connections between the Sheriff’s Office and the people we serve.
Corporal Carlton also represents a legacy of selfless service through his namesake. Lane County Sheriff’s Deputy Carlton Smith laid down his life in service to our community on his first night as a solo patrol deputy, July 6th, 1965.
Corporal was donated by Working Dogs Oregon, a nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing the welfare and effectiveness of working dogs across the state. They provide fully-trained comfort, therapy, and patrol dogs to law enforcement, fire departments, and district attorneys across the state.
We’re thrilled to welcome Corporal Carlton to the team and look forward to the positive impact he’ll continue to make on our staff and community!Photos from Lane County Sheriff's Office's post

Missing mushroom picker from Oakridge found deceased after lengthy search
On November 19th at about 2 p.m., Lane County Sheriff’s Search & Rescue (SAR) located the body of Jean Fritz Pierre Louis, 76, of Oakridge, who went missing early last week in the Salmon Creek area east of Oakridge. Louis was located deceased in the bottom of a steep drainage, which required rope teams to access and recover him.
Volunteers and deputies devoted over 1,000 hours to the search for Louis, which began with an intensive search on October 16th after he was reported missing. His vehicle was quickly located in the area. Searchers began tackling the incredibly rugged terrain on foot and horseback and using drones, K9s, and high-angle rope teams to access difficult areas. Searchers rappelled into multiple areas to search. Linn County SAR assisted with the search and recovery, as well as Eugene Mountain Rescue, which operates under Lane County Sheriff’s SAR.
While not the outcome hoped for, we are thankful to our many dedicated volunteers and agency partners who continue to search for those missing in our county.Photos from Lane County Sheriff's Office's post
