In July of 2014 Jeffery Andrade and canine \u201cDoc\u201d came to work for the Mendocino County Sheriff\u2019s Office. During their tenure with the Sheriff\u2019s Office \u201cDoc\u201d, and Deputy Andrade, participated in several assignments. These assignments included working patrol and with the County of Mendocino Marijuana Eradication Team (C.O.M.M.E.T).
