Can we say it was like Christmas morning when we received all of these generous donations?!?

A huge thank you to Councilwoman Monica Guzman and Debbie Bolanos for organizing, collecting, and delivering this amazing fundraising drive they did for us. They took a day out of their weekend for our dogs here.

An effort like this wouldn’t have been such a wonderful turn out with the wonderful East Chicago residents the dropped items off.

Thanks again to everyone who made this possible!

Dr. Relief: Brenda Dines, DVM and her dream team took time out of their busy schedules to help improve the health of our pet community once again here in EC for our residents, it makes the world of a difference!

We also thank Mayor Anthony Copeland and all city departments that helped make this year's Pet Clinic a huge success! See you next year!

Collaboration is key. You will notice the many skilled veterinarians, technicians, assistants and volunteers smiling in this photo. With the help of staff and volunteers associated with Ark Of The Dunes Animal Hospital, Dyer Animal Clinic, St. John Animal Clinic and ourselves, we were able to vaccinate and microchip 500+ animals in East Chicago, Indiana for free in a little over 3 hours. We are grateful to Elanco Pet Health & Boehringer Ingelheim Animal Health USA Inc. for the many donated vaccines and products, as well as East Chicago Animal Control for purchasing more supplies to serve their community. Thank you for all the planning, additional staffing and coordination from the East Chicago Health Department. We are always proud to support our Northwest Indiana Community.
