The DADO FundIn October, 2009, Dr. Shari Lyons lost her father, Dave Albert, to a brief illness. Dave had been a significant force in Dr. Shari's life, not only as a father, but as a mentor and lover of animals. As a young man, Dave had considered being a veterinarian, but was guided instead to a career in engineering.His love for pets never waned as evidenced by the many animal related pursuits he enjoyed. His assistance was immeasurable with his children's dog washing business and as the children grew, he continued as a dog trainer for the Pike Township 4-H program. After retiring from GM, he started his own business grooming dogs and cats and providing "do it yourself" grooming facilities. His own dogs and cats gave him so much joy he was never without a Max or Bailey story. In honor of her father, Dr. Shari has created the Dave Albert Defense of (DADO) Animals Fund. This fund is dedicated to improving the health and welfare of local homeless and needy pets. These funds will stay in Boone county and one hundred percent of the money donated will go to discounted services provided by the Zionsville Country Veterinary Clinic. Donations can be made for any reason, but many of the initial donations were made in Dave's honor and in memory of beloved pets. Dave Albert had a tender heart and was often moved by the same brown eyes the Dave Albert Memorial Fund intends to protect. Although he will always be missed, Dr. Shari is sure he would be proud to know that animals in need were being helped in his memory. |

"I Saved a Life" Discount Program
Many homeless, stray, and unwanted pets fill our local shelters and rescues each year. Those pets deserve a second chance at receiving a loving home. We appreciate those who choose to help the community by lessening that number when giving a home to one of these pets in need. To those who are choosing to adopt from a registered shelter or rescue, we are offering two wonderful discounts: the pet’s first exam is FREE, and we are giving a discount card that takes an additional 10% off all medical services (excluding food and medications) for one year. It’s our way of saying “thank you for saving a life” and giving a second chance to a pet in need. |
