Illinois Humane
Illinois Humane is a Springfield-based 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization working to rescue, re-home and provide better lives for abandoned, abused and neglected companion animals. Established in August 2003, it is an all-volunteer organization, with no paid staff.
It uses nine state-approved volunteer Humane Investigators who look into allegations of abuse or neglect of domestic animals. Four investigators are also approved to do equine cases.
Illinois Humane does not have a kennel facility or office location and all rescued animals are sheltered in a network of foster homes or discounted kennel spaces.
Illinois Humane is not officially affiliated with other area shelters, but works cooperatively with them to provide rescue services and promote humane treatment of companion animals.

My name is Candra and I’m about 2 years old. Many of my friends call me “Candy” because I’m really just that sweet. I love to meet lots of people and I mind very well for my foster daddy and my adoption handlers. My friends say that I was blessed with “explosive energy”. That means I can go from 0 to 100 in a second. This would be pretty cool if I was a gymnast doing a floor exercise, but I’m not.

Hmmm ... I keep looking in all the dog books, and I just can't seem to figure out who my parents might be. My friends say my parents might have some pointer and some hound in them, but who really knows? One thing is for certain though, I am Mr. Congeniality. Quite honestly, I love everyone, dogs, cats, humans, kids ... you name them, I love them! At a slender 41 lbs., I am just the right size.
