Veterinary clinic

Cathrin Möhring

Elsfleth, Germany

Tierärztliche Praxis für Pferde Cathrin Möhring is a mobile equine veterinary practice based in Elsfleth, with equine dentistry as its main focus. Dental disorders are common in horses and are often only noticed once serious changes have developed, so the practice works preventively: annual checks for horses over five and six-monthly checks for young horses from about two and a half, when problems such as retained milk caps can appear. Treatment is normally carried out under sedation to allow thorough, careful work. Beyond dentistry the practice is also available for other equine complaints, and covers a radius of roughly 120 km around Elsfleth with appointments by arrangement, including weekends and holidays.
