Bischoff's Taxidermy & Animal FX

Bischoff’s Taxidermy & Animal FX isn’t just famous for their Hollywood work (though their resume is wild—from Game of Thrones to Westworld). What’s less talked about, but maybe even more impactful, is what they offer for pet owners. If you’ve ever wanted a way to remember your pet that feels more real and connected than a simple urn of ashes—this is the place. They can do everything from a full lifelike mount to more subtle options like a preserved paw, skull, or even heart in a glass dome. There’s something deeply comforting about having a piece of your pet you can actually touch or display, rather than storing their memory away in a box. They even match the glass eyes to your pet’s coloring—yes, it’s that detailed. The owner is incredibly kind, and the whole team is warm, respectful, and clearly passionate about the work. It’s not for everyone, but if you’re into it—or even just curious—it’s absolutely worth a call. The quality is world-class, but the heart behind it is what really stands out. Five stars for craftsmanship, empathy, and giving people an option to grieve in a way that actually feels personal.

Bischoff's did an incredible job preserving my sweet pittie!! I broke down and cried when I picked him up because he looked exactly as he did before he passed away. Anyone who has ever answered the phone there has always been kind, patient, and helpful. They truly understand how difficult it can be to lose a pet and it showed in the way they dealt with me, from picking him up from the vet, to giving him back to our family.

Thank you Bischoff’s, I’m very happy with the outcome of my euro mount. 1. Reasonable price 2. Return within time frame 3. Great information 4. Friendly 5. Nice work Five star business!

They have a payment plan which is great if you cannot afford the services up front. They also do pick ups. The photo is of my fur baby after they picked up from the clinic and I went to take one last visit before they begin the process.

One of my tortoises died unexpectedly and I wanted to preserve it's shell. These guys did a great job with the preservation. They used beetles for the cleaning, process took 6 months.

Ace is a total angel and has been so helpful and kind throughout bringing in my dogs. I've kept paws, skulls and done cremation and it has all been excellent work. Appreciate your team and facility so very much.

Bishcoff's has been very friendly and understanding. I sent them my kitty to have her skull preserved. Not only did they help me figure out how best to get her from Oregon to California but they sent me a message when they received her body so I knew she had arrived safely. It's been hard without her but they have made it a smooth process.
