Vet-Schroeder Tollisan

There’s no better way to race!

In 2010 the entrepreneurs Dr. Vincent Schroeder (Schroeder Pigeon Products) and Johannes Jakobs (Tollisan) merged and they founded the veterinary practice and racing pigeon company Vet-Schroeder + Tollisan BV, Kerkrade (Netherlands).

The earlier practice of Dr. Schroeder in Bilzen (Belgium) additionally continued to operate.

On our website you will find information about our new veterinary practice in Kerkrade, our pigeon products and a matching care plan and feed programme. The medical health check is a very important aspect in modern and success-oriented pigeon racing. The Vet-Schroeder + Tollisan products are free of drugs and manufactured as per GMP quality standards. Which provides you with the assurance you are providing quality products for your racing pigeons.

The professional expertise and practical experience of the racing pigeon specialists Dr. Vincent Schroeder and Johannes Jakobs, plus our products, will be a key to success for you.

Dr. Vincent Schroeder is from a family of racing pigeon breeders and successfully competes with his father at long distance races. In 1994 he began his studies at the University of Liege.

In 2000 he received his degree as a doctor of veterinary medicine. Subsequent to this he worked for a further two years in a laboratory for veterinary medicine, whereby he acquired important skills in dealing with various laboratory techniques in the fields of bacteriology and mycology. Today, these laboratory years are proving to be of great benefit in diagnosis.

In 2002 a cooperation started with veterinarian Dr. Peeters, Belgium. The cooperation lasted for four years and a wealth of knowledge in regard to racing pigeon care and racing pigeon medicine was learnt from the legendary Dr. Peeters.

In 2006 the move was made to self-employment and a racing pigeon practice opened in Bilzen (Belgium).

Johannes Jakobs also originates from a racing pigeon family. His grandfather raced pigeons to Budapest and his father also raced them to St. Pölten. Over the last 10 years Johannes Jakobs has built a reputation as one of the most prominent pigeon fanciers in Germany. Outstanding achievements in one of the largest regional associations in Germany, namely the Regional Association of Aachen-Land 415, have brought his name to the forefront.

By profession, Johannes Jakobs is a trained bank official. However, for some 15 years he was employed as a Sales Director in the pharmaceutical industry and, for several of those years, dealt with veterinarians. There is not a powder or liquid mixture unknown to him. In 2001, with the purchase of Tollisan, he took the path of self-employment within the racing pigeon sport. The distribution of Dosto-Oregano products and the PS Prange soup were further steps in the development of the brand name Tollisan.

All products were further improved in the lost two years. Just good is not enough. Our aim is to constantly improve our products. The world never stands still, and neither will the Vet-Schroeder-Tollisan team. We strive to constantly improve every aspect of our actions in terms of our products, our customers and the racing pigeons.

The fact that we were able to take over the operation of Sedochol Plus from a world-wide leading company in the veterinary drug industry such as Merial, shows that we are on the right path.

DF 3000 by Dostofarm, a product for the disinfection of drinking water in the transportation unit, is described in-depth in the inner part of the brochure. For years, water hygiene in the transportation units has not been given sufficient attention.

Dosto-Oregano – Always ahead of the competition. Our new Dosto-Oregano liquid, case and powder products contain new, higher active ingredient concentrations due to additional essential oils for healthy air passages.

Due to the increased demand for probiotics, we have agreed with the market leader Dr. Brockamp to distribute Probac 1000. With its formula based upon pigeon specific intestinal bacteria Probac 1000 is ideally suited to regenerate in intestinal flora after medication or ill health. 1gram of Probac 1000 contains over 1.5 billion bacteria endemic to the pigeon capable of colony establishment in the small intestine.

Our new product pH-Control contains both acetic acid and formic acid, natural inhibitors of pathogenic bacteria. Although similar products exist, the main difference to many similar products is pH-Control contains buffered acids so that they remain active in the intestinal tract.

Now in 2017 both companies Vet. Schroeder and Tollisan are totally merged so we decided to delete the divider in our Company name. We proudly present Vet SchroederTOLLISAN and we are ready to go with you into a successful future.

The team Vet-Schroeder-Tollisan looks forward to welcoming you as a Partner.
