Maxl | Horse

The authorities are increasingly turning to Gut Aiderbichl for help. This is because when animals are confiscated, it must also be clarified where they can be taken into so-called care. This was also the case with the ponies Maxl, Flori and Lucy, as well as the peacocks Avani, Ishani, Phoenix and Zaltana. We agreed that…

Tommi | Horse

Tommi the black horse should have been slaughtered due to human stupidity. On New Year's Eve, youths threw firecrackers at the horse, and since then Tommi has no longer been a reliable carriage horse. In other words, he no longer performs at his best, and at the age of seven he stood in front of…

Peter | Horse

Carriage horses have an expiration date, which occurs as soon as they can no longer pull the carriage for health reasons. At this point, the owners no longer have any use for the animals and very often these poor souls start their last journey as slaughter horses. But the story of Peter proves that exceptions…

Arno | Horse

It's like playing the lottery for the breeders. If they are insanely lucky, a foal can bring a lot of money. Breeders hope for this and accept that the vast majority of foals die. After all, hardly anyone is interested in foals that are not considered perfect representatives of their breed. In the fall, the…

Rambo | Horse

When Rambo and Finn came to us, they were in a pitiful state. We didn't know if they would make it and did everything we could. But both are great fighters in small bodies and recovered well. They were warmly welcomed by foster father Bubbi and stepbrother Chris and have been inseparable ever since. But…

Hadrian | Horse

When Hadrian came under the protection of Gut Aiderbichl at the age of 146 days, we immediately admired his proud bearing and splendor. That's why we chose the name of the famous Roman emperor who achieved great things. Thanks to a lucky coincidence, Hadrian came under our protection in a roundabout way, as he almost…

Rex | Horse

An animal lover contacted us and described Rex's fate. She had remained loyal to him as he was no longer rideable and had given him the bread of mercy. But then the time came when she simply could no longer afford to keep him. She tried to find a good place for her beloved Rex,…

Moritz | Horse

A family had bought two ponies for the children. When they lost interest, the attitude also deteriorated. Both ponies were simply locked in a stable and ignored. When health problems arose, the family decided that they had to go. We brought Moritz and Hertha (unfortunately already deceased) to Gut Aiderbichl. Hertha was in such a…

Thalia | Horse

The name Thalia has many meanings, such as in the Arabic light of paradise or in Turkish luck or fate. And all these meanings cannot even begin to describe the gratitude and happiness we felt when she first set foot on Gut Aiderbichl. Foal 37, which we discovered at the horse market in Rottenbuch, grew…

Indra | Horse

We can't imagine what would have happened if we hadn't found shy little Indra. She had crouched down and hidden behind her mother at the slaughter horse market in Maishofen. The brave mother tried to protect her daughter. We were very moved by the sight. Nobody wanted to leave them at the market. So they…

Sternchen | Horse

Estate manager Maria Kaindl heard about two pregnant pony mares that would probably be slaughtered if no owner could be found. The dealer who told her about this also showed her photos. She didn't take long, bought the two mares and brought them back to her farm. A few months later, they gave birth to…

Funny | Horse

Unfortunately, stories like Fanny's happen every day and reach us very often: Fanny was handed in to a small sanctuary because the previous owner had overstretched himself financially and simply wanted to get rid of her. Unfortunately, the sanctuary in question was also under financial pressure and was in the red. The owners of the…
