12 animals were treated at the veterinary consultation in Biel.

August 2024

The Elephant in the Room…

...Don’t worry, veterinarian Dr. med. vet. Daniel Hofer and vet assistant Anika Fritschi from the small animal clinic LYSSBACHVET

didn’t treat an actual elephant during the last consultation of the Social Work for Animals (SOFT) in Biel. However, this proverbial elephant was often present in the rooms of CONTACTBiel. Many of the 12 treated animals showed characteristics of extreme breeding.

This includes the three babies in the picture, who face a lifetime of suffering. Folded ears or shortened skulls are just the most obvious impairments these animals will endure throughout their lives. Folded ears are caused by genetically bred cartilage malformations, which often affect all the joints in the body. These animals suffer without their owners even being aware of it.

That’s why this project is so important! The consultations provide a space for direct knowledge exchange and awareness about extreme breeding issues, as well as how spaying and neutering can prevent further animal suffering.

So, THANK YOU to everyone who supports SOFT—whether through donations, expertise, or time!
