Lost Dogs Illinois is a group of volunteers who saw the need to provide education for dog owners on preventing the loss of their dog and provide no cost resources to the owners of lost dogs to help increase the chances of locating and being successfully reunited with their dog. The program also benefits local animal control and shelters by decreasing the number of "owned strays" entering the animal control/shelter system and increasing the chances of finding an owner once a dog is in their care.
