On the Teltow Canal, directly at the city limits of Zehlendorf, dogs and owners have been training together at EZGS e.V. since 1957, whether puppy or competition dog.

In Mahlow, south of Berlin, certified canine physiotherapist Veronika Naß treats sick, post-operative, and healthy dogs with one of the widest ranges of therapies in the region. If you want to give your four-legged friend more than just a regular animal massage, you've come to the right place.

The Relexa Hotel Berlin, also known as Relexa Hotel Stuttgarter Hof, is located in Kreuzberg, just a few minutes' walk from Potsdamer Platz.

The dog garden "Kleine Feiglinge" (Little Cowards) offers puppies and small breeds the space they need without larger companions dominating the power play.
