Donkey Donna-Anna

Lumi | Donkey

We receive many requests for help regarding animals in need every day. We try to help with every emergency, but we don't always succeed. Our space capacities are not infinite. An Aiderbichler who had a donkey enclosure in her neighborhood found that they were not being kept well there. She was extremely committed to improving…

Dinkel | Donkey

Our mini donkeys Zimt, Zucker, Dinkel and Hafer are the newest residents of Gut Aiderbichl in Henndorf. They come from a breeding farm that had to reduce its stock in difficult times. The four loving animals have found a new, safe home with us, where they are looked after with lots of care and attention.

Nadja | Donkey

Nadja owes her life to an animal lover who couldn't get the fate of a total of 7 donkeys out of her mind. She discovered an ad on Facebook and contacted us. She asked for help and to take in at least one or two animals. She would take care of the rescue and transportation.…

Olympe | Donkey

Two Aiderbichler women came across the 10-year-old donkey Olympe and her foal Mona by chance while visiting a farmer. They were completely neglected and, above all, their hooves were in a catastrophic condition. Olympe could barely take a step, she was literally buckling and every step was painful. The owner gave the Aiderbichlers an ultimatum.…

Noldi | Donkey

Swiss animal lovers contacted us with concern. They had read in the newspaper about a donkey that was to die because it was blind. Michael Aufhauser contacted the owner, a foundation for people with disabilities. They were happy when we offered to bring Noldi to Gut Aiderbichl Henndorf. For fear of not doing the blind…

Lorenzo | Donkey

Lorenzo and other donkeys were on a site in Italy and were due to be slaughtered. An animal welfare organization stepped in and wanted to rescue the donkeys from this unfortunate situation and save them from death. Gut Aiderbichl agreed to take in donkeys too and the handsome Lorenzo is one of them. He spends…

Valentin | Donkey

When we welcomed his mother Nadja and her friend Jessy to Gut Aiderbichl Deggendorf, we already knew that Nadja was pregnant. The animal lover, who was taking care of the 7 donkeys, had temporarily accommodated the animals on her farm and had taken over the initial care of the animals. The woman became aware of…

Seppi | Donkey

One phone call can often change a whole life. This was the experience of the well-behaved and loving donkey gelding Seppi. An animal lover who had packed up her tents in Bavaria and wanted to return to her home country asked to take him in. The neighbor would keep him very badly. Alone, with two…

Herbert | Donkey

Beautiful Herbert with his faithful eyes came to us in December 2019. His owner always looked after him with lots of love and care. He wanted for nothing. But fate did not mean well: his owner became ill and was no longer able to provide her beloved donkey gelding with species-appropriate and comprehensive care. She…

Andi_Andante | Donkey

During filming on the endangered Baroque donkeys, we learned of a particularly sad donkey's fate. The lease for the property on which an animal lover kept two Baroque donkey mares and a foal had been terminated. No place could be found quickly where the three donkeys could continue to live together. In the end, the…

Herr Fridolin | Donkey

Mr. Fridolin comes from private husbandry. Where he lived, there were only sheep apart from him. Of course, Mr. Fridolin was bored without his own kind, so he kept trying to play with the sheep. This led to dramatic scenes and eventually even to Mr. Fridolin losing his place. In our Aiderbichler donkey family, Mr.…

Elfriede | Donkey

A family with a big heart for animals contacted us with a big request. At home they look after two donkeys, two ponies and a few goats, pigs and poultry. In short, a small Aiderbichl. All the animals moved into the household with the promise that they would be allowed to stay forever. But the…
