specializing in dental health and holistic wellness
Muxkilda Veterinary Clinic
Looking after your pet shouldn’t be complicated, but it should be done properly. At Muxkilda Veterinary Clinic, we understand that you don’t just come in for a ‘quick check-up’; you come because there’s someone important in your life who needs care, peace of mind and clear solutions.
That’s why we work in a very specific way: rigorous medicine, honest treatment and a preventative approach. No beating about the bush, no unnecessary scares, but without overlooking what’s important.
We’re located in the Urdanibia neighbourhood of Irún, in a quiet setting with easy parking, designed to make your visit as comfortable as possible for both you and your pet.
Much more than just a veterinary clinic in Irún
Since we opened in 2018, we’ve been guided by a clear vision: to provide a level of care that combines clinical expertise, technology and genuine warmth. Here, we don’t rush things or rely on generic protocols. Every patient has their own circumstances, history and pace.
Our commitment is simple to explain, but demanding to fulfil: to provide the best possible care and always explain to you what is happening and why. Because when you understand what is happening to your pet, you make better decisions.
Technology that makes a difference in diagnosis and treatment
At Muxkilda Veterinary Clinic, we don’t use technology just for the sake of it, but because it genuinely improves the quality of diagnosis and the patient’s well-being.
During your visit, if you need it, we can discuss with you two areas where we are particularly thorough:
Veterinary Dental Unit with intraoral radiography
It allows us to examine each tooth in detail, identifying problems that are not visible to the naked eye. This completely changes the way we diagnose and treat oral health.
K-Laser therapy
A non-invasive tool that we use in cases such as osteoarthritis, arthritis or during the recovery process, helping to reduce pain, speed up healing and improve mobility.
It is not always necessary to use them, but when they are, they make a clear difference to the outcome and the animal’s quality of life
focused on preventing, diagnosing and treating with precision

Internal medicine and comprehensive diagnosis
Many problems aren’t immediately obvious. Changes in behaviour, listlessness, loss of appetite or minor symptoms can be important warning signs.
We offer:
- In-house laboratory testing
- Ultrasound
- Digital radiography
This enables us to make a swift diagnosis without relying on external providers, which is crucial when prompt and informed action is required.
Specialists in veterinary dental care in Irún
The mouth is often overlooked… until it starts to hurt.
Periodontal disease is very common and often goes unnoticed. Bad breath, difficulty eating or bleeding are just the tip of the iceberg.
At our clinic, we offer:
- Advanced dental unit and piezoelectric device for dental procedures
- Intraoral radiography (essential for seeing what the naked eye cannot)
- Cleanings, extractions and specialist treatments
The difference is clear: we don’t just treat what’s visible; we treat the real problem.
Soft tissue surgery with advanced monitoring
When surgery is necessary, it is not just a matter of performing it, but of doing so safely and with careful control.
We offer:
- Anaesthesia with mechanical ventilation
- Continuous monitoring
- Protocols tailored to each patient
This reduces risks and allows for a more controlled recovery, which is particularly important in older animals.
K-Laser therapy: less pain, faster recovery
Laser therapy is becoming increasingly popular for one simple reason: it works.
It is used for:
- Osteoarthritis and arthritis
- Chronic pain
- Inflammation
- Post-surgical recovery
- Skin conditions
It is painless, non-invasive and speeds up the healing process, which is particularly beneficial for elderly patients.
Care for small mammals
We also treat rabbits and guinea pigs, taking the specific care that these animals require.
Why is it important to take action before problems arise?
One of the most common situations encountered in the clinic is this:
“It happened all of a sudden”
But in most cases, this has not been the case.
Diseases tend to develop gradually, and by the time the symptoms become apparent, the condition is already at an advanced stage.
Prevention completely changes the prognosis.
Early detection means simpler treatments
Less suffering for the animal
Lower long-term costs
A better quality of life
And, above all, fewer rushed decisions.
This is how we work on every visit
We know that visiting the vet can be a source of uncertainty, and even worry. That’s why, at our veterinary clinic in Irún, we take great care to ensure you have a positive experience from the moment you walk through the door.
1.
We listen before we explore
Your information is key. Nobody knows your pet better than you do.
2.
Full examination
We don’t just focus on the symptom. We seek to understand the bigger picture.
3.
Tests, if necessary
We always explain why we recommend each test and ask for approval of the quote. No unnecessary tests, but we don’t cut corners either.
4.
Diagnosis and a clear plan
We explain what’s happening in plain language and with realistic options.
5.
Monitoring and engagement
Medical care doesn’t end at the doctor’s surgery. We provide follow-up care when necessary. It takes teamwork between the patient and their carer to make it work.
A clinic designed for animals… and for people too
Veterinary medicine isn’t just about technical skills. It’s also about the experience itself.
That’s why, at our veterinary clinic in Irún, we’ve created a space:
Relaxed and approachable
Free parking
Away from the hustle and bustle of the city centre
Designed to reduce stress
We may not be on a main street, but that has one clear advantage:
anyone who comes here does so because they’re looking for a team they can trust.
A team that puts honesty first
You won’t find any empty promises here.
Our values are clear:
- Honesty in diagnosis and treatment
- A commitment to the animal’s genuine well-being
- Clear communication with the pet owner
Because a good decision starts with good information.
What’s more, we can assist you in Spanish, English and Basque, so that you feel at ease at all times.
Also designed for elderly patients
We are seeing more and more older pets, and that is good news.
But it also means adapting veterinary care:
- Pain management
- More frequent check-ups
- Adjustments to treatment plans
- Prevention of complications
This is where services such as K-Laser therapy or early diagnosis make all the difference.
