Clinton County honors retiring K‑9s and approves sheriff’s vehicle purchases

Clinton County Board of Commissioners · August 18, 2026

Summary

The county recognized K9 Lambo and K9 Barry for six years of service and approved a plan for the sheriff to buy seven new vehicles (six SUVs and one minivan) and trade in a number of older vehicles and motorcycles.

The Clinton County Sheriff’s Office presented retirement recognitions for two service dogs, K9 Lambo and K9 Barry, and honored their handlers, Assistant Jail Commander Sergeant Chase Miller and Sergeant Jared Yodar. The sheriff’s remarks praised the bond between handlers and K‑9s and thanked the teams for six years of service. Handler Chase Miller said, "Thanks for letting me keep him. I appreciate that."

Later in the meeting the sheriff requested and received approval to purchase seven replacement vehicles — six Tahoe‑style SUVs and one minivan — and to trade in roughly 10 cars and four motorcycles as part of the fleet refresh. A commissioner moved and the board voted to approve the vehicle purchases and trading plan.

The board’s approvals allow the sheriff’s office to finalize procurement and proceed with vehicle outfitting and disposition of surplus assets.
