The mission of Search and Rescue Dogs of Illinois (SARDI) is to provide trained and certified personnel and canines to law enforcement agencies to assist in the search for lost or overdue persons. Our emergency callout pager (224) 637-9691 is with the Operational Leader of SARDI 24 hours a day. For non-emergency calls please contact (224) 715-4146.
SARDI is a not for profit, 501c3 volunteer organization and does not charge for their services.
Depending on the needs of the managing agency, SARDI operations can integrate completely into the command structure or work independently with our own operations and logistics, base operations and communications.
