New approach for found animals: T.I.E.R.E. e.V. takes over in Ludwigsfelde
From August 1, 2025, the T.I.E.R.E. association will take over. e. V. in Ludwigsfelde takes care of all found animals in the city. This not only means a clear contact person for citizens, but also quick and reliable help for homeless or injured animals, as Ludwigsfelde.de reports. Citizens are also advised that if such an animal is discovered, they should contact the Ludwigsfelde public order office on 03378 827-131 or by email at Ordnungsamt@Ludwigsfelde.de. In emergencies, call the police on 110 or the fire department on 112.
Another contact point is the Tierrettung Potsdam e.V. hotline, which answers general questions about found animals (01517 012 12 02). Animals found are then taken to one of the two partner animal shelters: the Geltow animal shelter or the Wiesenburg animal shelter. The relevant contact information for the animal shelters is also very important. You can reach the Geltow animal shelter on 0176 966 032 04 and the Wiesenburg animal shelter on 0163 759 66 78.
A good place for animals in need
The animal shelter in Ludwigsfelde is the first point of contact for animal protection in the region. Dogs, cats, small animals, birds and even reptiles are sold here, as Tierheim.com shows. Especially in high season, many baby animals such as puppies and kittens are offered for adoption. The online presence of the animal protection association offers those interested a good overview of animals that can be adopted.
The dedicated employees and many volunteers provide support with all tasks, from walking the dogs to petting the cats. In addition, upcoming animal adoptions can be secured with information from the veterinary office. The local veterinary medicine is also well positioned and offers comprehensive medical care for pets.
Publicity and transparency
The city of Ludwigsfelde has also committed to making all found animals publicly known. Regular publication on the municipal online platforms ensures that missing animals can be found as quickly as possible. Back to the core issues of animal protection: Germany has many animal protection organizations, but not all of them are transparent and non-profit. Here it becomes important to turn to reputable organizations, such as the Bund against the Abuse of Animals e.V. or Deutscher Tierschutzbund e.V., which are known through their organization and their many years of activity in animal protection are known.
Due to the new regulations and the good cooperation with the animal shelters, Ludwigsfelde will not only be a better place for the residents, but also for our animal friends. If you have any questions or discover a found animal, you should not be afraid to contact the contacts provided.
