Horse Bella

Corragio | Horse

It often seems that horses are only reduced to their rideability. As soon as problems with the legs arise, the great love for the horse seems to turn into ignorance, according to the motto: What doesn't work must go! Corragio was also to be put down because his owners no longer saw any use in…

Fee | Horse

When the cattle dealer brought the chestnut mare to us in the winter of 2013, he didn't have a good word to say for her. She had collapsed in his stable. Fee was actually destined for transportation to Eastern Europe. But because she was too weak for this, she was no longer allowed to be…

Casimode | Horse

We were asked for help by the authorities in France. A stud farm was keeping 103 horses and 60 dogs in catastrophic conditions. It was also called The Stud Farm of Shame. We were asked to take in two of the many horses. We immediately agreed to take them in and the farm was cleared…

Lena | Horse

Sometimes you could almost think it was a crime to be small: Lena was originally purchased as a riding pony for the children. When they became too big for Lena, the pony mare had to go. An animal lover found her and took her into her riding stable. When she had to give it up…

Remo | Horse

Remo's owner simply had no luck. She wanted nothing more than a horse that she could ride out with from time to time. It should also love children and be well-behaved. But somehow it wasn't meant to be. She had to put her very first horse to sleep at the age of 26, and she…

Dazzy O’Lena | Horse

Dazzy O'Lena and her son Little Man were in an incredibly difficult situation. They were kept in very poor conditions, with hardly any care for years. For a long time, Little Man only knew his mother as a companion. An Aiderbichler woman followed the horses' progress and repeatedly tried to help them. When the authorities…

Martin | Horse

Our sunshine Martin almost never saw the light of day. His mother Martina was on a slaughter transport to Belgium in October 2007. There he would probably have simply been disposed of as an embryo. Animal rights activists stopped the transport as the conditions for the 21 horses were devastating. Thanks to the animal welfare…

Fanny | Horse

When we received a call from a dealer, Michael Aufhauser wanted to help immediately. Two horses had been delivered to the dealer's yard, well trained and their manes had been plaited. The dealer didn't know why someone wanted to get rid of these two beautiful horses and send them to slaughter. Michael Aufhauser couldn't help…

Roger | Horse

In 2012, Gut Aiderbichl rescued 14 goats from a circus whose animals had been confiscated. Among the goats was a black pony, "Roger", who was tied to a short rope in the middle of the goats. Once you know this spirited, bright pony, it is hard to imagine the torment Roger must have experienced in…

Kalina | Horse

When we are asked by the authorities whether we can help with a confiscation, we always have to assume the worst case scenario. We have to expect to take in completely neglected animals - animals that no longer expect anything positive from humans. Their only purpose in life seemed to be to give birth to…

Ullrich | Horse

Time and again, we are approached by owners of horses whose equestrian careers are over. As was the case with Ullrich. They then discuss with us what their future life could look like. Daily exercise, contact with other horses and loving care. Plus the best medical care, food and grooming. Gut Aiderbichl can offer all…

Zahara | Horse

Zahara is a former competition horse and was stabled at the age of almost 20. This or a similar fate befalls many sport horses: when they can no longer perform, they are driven to the slaughterhouse, are stabled or are lucky enough to become an Aiderbichler. Zahara's owner no longer wanted her and she was…
