Panja | Horse

An animal lover contacted the Gut Aiderbichl administration. When she told us her story, we were close to tears. She told us that she found out by chance that two mares were going to the slaughterhouse. When she went to look at them, the mother mare was supposedly lying tied up on the ground, covered…

Upsi | Horse

Upsi - a funny name with a sad background story. Upsi and some other horses from a riding stable had been reported to the animal emergency center and we wanted to help. The animals were reportedly not in a good condition. An accident, weeks of coma etc. put the owner of the horses in a…

Didier | Horse

The problem with foals: It's like playing the lottery for the breeders. If they are insanely lucky, a foal can bring a lot of money. The breeders hope for this and accept that the vast majority of foals have to die. Because hardly anyone is interested in foals that are not considered perfect representatives of…

Shakira | Horse

A lady contacted Gut Aiderbichl with a desperate message. An animal lover had passed away and left behind two ponies. At first we were able to place the two, but when the rejection came, it almost came to a bad end. But we were able to help and give Sharika a new home. Together with…

Ricky | Horse

Ricky and Wendy have known each other almost since birth. They have been inseparable ever since. As the pet owner grew older and the granddaughters grew up, the focus shifted. The two Haflinger mares no longer had a place in the family's life. The young farmer decided to give them away, even to a butcher…

Spirit | Horse

Michael Aufhauser has always had a very special eye for animals. He was also very quick to recognize foals that would almost certainly be among the losers of the day and would most likely find themselves on a slaughter transport to Italy. He probably also saw this fate in Spirit. He bought him free and…

Rusty | Horse

Rusty got his name from a very sad event. Animal lovers had bought foals free and wanted to place them. When no one was interested in the animals, they stayed where they were. The animal lovers got into massive financial problems, so that in the meantime they could no longer guarantee their feeding. We were…

Noah Devil | Horse

Unfortunately, it can happen that situations are exaggerated. But it is fatal when facts are invented. This is what happened with Noah Devil and his friend Olaf (now deceased). We were told about extremely poor husbandry and there was talk of confiscation. In short: there was "imminent danger". When we arrived at the scene, we…

Nino | Horse

The handsome cold-blooded gelding Nino was bought free from the foal market by animal welfare activists. Originally, they were to be rehomed. But Nino had vertebrae damage that made it impossible to place him. Nobody wanted two more foals. All this put the animal welfare organization in financial difficulties. For a long time, they tried…

Sunny- Sunshine Feeling | Horse

The breeder must have had something in mind when he gave the horse his actual name Sunshine-Feeling. It is almost like a wish that was to accompany the Oldenburg chestnut through his life. But things turned out quite differently: his owner "had to" turn her back on him. For personal reasons, but also because Sunny…

Basti | Horse

Many ponies are like Basti. They are kept by older people who see a purpose in them. However, they are often bought for the grandchildren, who then lose interest or switch to "real horses". When one of the ponies dies, the problem arises of what to do with the second one. For many people, it…

Arie | Horse

Friesians from the circus have been living at Gut Aiderbichl for years. There they performed their tricks in the circus ring. Stallions work in the circus, and hardly any spectator can imagine that stallion training is difficult. The stallions are required to make a great sacrifice in their posture and usually live in isolation to…
