Via the online booking system on our website (here), or by phone.

What should I bring to my appointment?

Vaccination record, any previous test results, and the patient.

What happens if I cannot make my appointment?

Please cancel in good time – if an appointment is missed without notice,
a no-show fee may be charged.

Parking and directions?

Plenty of public parking is available (Bleiweiß car park).

What does a first visit with a new pet involve?

For the first visit with your new pet, we take particularly much time.
Depending on age, origin and state of health, we advise you individually on topics such as vaccinations, deworming, parasite prevention, nutrition and behaviour.
It is important to us that you and your pet feel well looked after – so please feel free to ask any questions you have on your mind.

Can my pet stay overnight?

Yes, if medically necessary.

How can I estimate the costs?

We always try to give a rough cost estimate – however, it is not always clear in advance what will be necessary, so the costs may differ from the original estimate.

Are there additional costs on Sundays or public holidays?

Yes, appointments on Sundays, public holidays and outside regular opening hours are charged with a surcharge (according to the guidelines of the Chamber of Veterinarians).

How does euthanasia work and what happens to the animal afterwards?

We take the time to discuss the procedure with you calmly and give you enough time to say goodbye. Euthanasia is gentle and painless. Your pet first receives a high dose of an anaesthetic and falls asleep peacefully (as for an operation). Afterwards, a medication is administered that stops the heart. You can stay with your pet the whole time.

Afterwards you have a choice: you can take your pet home or arrange cremation through an animal crematorium. We will advise you on all options.
