On September 30, 2025, the Prins Laurent Foundation celebrated the inauguration of new facilities for its animal dispensary in Laken. This project is particularly favored by Prince Laurent, who has been involved in animal welfare for over thirty years.
Animal Dispensary Features
The new dispensary offers accessible and affordable veterinary care. Located in Brussels, it is described as “functional, light, spacious, and pleasant.” The foundation aims to provide maximum comfort for both beneficiaries and their four-legged patients.
Services at the dispensary include preventive care such as consultations, vaccinations, sterilizations, and dental cleanings. It also offers curative care, including complex surgeries. The dispensary can accommodate up to 150 consultations, 70 vaccinations, and 20 sterilizations and identifications each month.
Foundation’s Mission
The Prins Laurent Foundation focuses on animal welfare, particularly for individuals in vulnerable situations. It operates seven dispensaries across Belgium, including locations in Antwerp, Brussels, Ghent, Genk, Liège, Charleroi, and Hornu. The foundation’s motto is to “help people through their animals,” ensuring everyone has access to the unconditional love of a pet, regardless of their financial situation.
