ESTELLE MARCUS’ DREAM CLINIC
Established in 2011 and made possible through the generous support of Ms. Estelle Marcus, we are grateful to be part of the legacy she built. Her dream was to create a place which provides health and wellness services for underserved communities and owners of pitbulls and pitbull mixes.
Our clinic offers discounted services and support for pet owners who qualify and for rescue organizations. We provide low-cost spay/neuter, vaccinations, and other basic wellness services to keep pets healthy.
The Dream
Her dream was to create a pet clinic that assists underserved communities.
We’ve developed relationships with several rescue groups and work together to keep animals safe and healthy. We value compassionate like-minded groups and know how vital their work is to our community. Please call us if you represent a rescue group that may be interested in our services.
Humane Indiana believes in promoting the human-animal bond for underserved populations and is proud to continue Estelle Marcus’ vision through our service to pet owners in Northwest Indiana. See "Our Services" page for a complete list of offerings.
About Estelle
Estelle spent her life in the Region with her husband Bernard. She continuously gave back to the community and supported Humane Indiana. Estelle’s generosity enabled us to buy the property in Munster, IN and build the clinic and shelter. The clinic was one of the final acts of generosity by our longtime supporter. She has created a strong foundation for Humane Indiana and every day we try to honor her legacy.
“Our Shelter and Clinic would not exist today without the generous support of Estelle Marcus," says Senior Director of Clinic and Shelter Operations Jessica Petalas. "Estelle's contributions spanned decades, and have given us the opportunity to serve thousands of pet owners in our community who would otherwise not be able to afford basic medical services for their beloved pets.”

Spay/Neuter surgeries and vaccinations are scheduled by appointment only. Please contact us for more information or to schedule an appointment.
