About me

Hi!

My name is Doris Träg, I come from Germany and moved to Tenerife end of 2024.

Ever since I was a child, I always wanted to be close to animals. Unfortunately, having your own pet was not possible for a long time due to work and living situation, but in 2017 our first dog - Willi - was finally able to move in.

Willi was a three-legged street dog from Romania with many health problems. He made me want to help poor, injured, sick and old dogs. Since then, we have only taken in old or sick dogs from animal welfare. Through them and numerous visits to the vet, I learned how important health care, physical therapy and a good vet are. But as an owner, I also wanted to be able to do everything I could to keep my dogs healthy and happy.

So I decided to focus not only my private life but also my job entirely on animals. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to study medicine, but I was lucky to complete training as an animal physiotherapist and alternative practitioner for dogs and cats at the ATM (Akademie für Tiernaturheilkunde und Tierphysiotherapie GmbH).

I was also able learn a lot from our veterinarian in Germany and even worked there as a swimming physiotherapist for dogs. This of course included working with sick dogs (e.g. with osteoarthritis or for rehab after a herniated disc), but also working with young dogs for prevention and getting used to the water.

Despite the many options that physiotherapy and naturopathy offer us, extensive diagnostics and treatment by veterinarians and by conventional medicine is important and often necessary. Therefore, treatment should always be carried out under their supervision and instructions.

I have therefore decided to apply my knowledge and skills in the area of wellness and fitness in order to promote the health and well-being of our four-legged friends.

The well-being of animals has always been particularly important to me and is my focus!

Since I am still learning the Spanish language, I currently speak English and German. I hope you understand this! Love to animals speaks a universal language, so I think we can definitely communicate :)

I am now looking forward to supporting you and your furry friends – no matter what stage of life they are in!
