Horse Hanne

Lucky | Horse

Lucky, a Czech riding pony, has more or less become a victim of the coronavirus pandemic. A horse farm with a guesthouse had to be closed. The riding business was attached to a country inn and was sold, so the stable rent increased. Most of the horses were able to find a new forever home,…

Carlos | Horse

We have been following the development of a small circus for many years. We have sometimes experienced first-hand how the people and animals there are faring. In the beginning, the audience demanded exciting performances and attractions. But over time, the audience's expectations changed, they became skeptical and the animals in the circus gradually disappeared. Only…

Linus | Horse

Anyone who sees Linus is fascinated by his grace and beauty. Such a magnificent horse, but he has one flaw: a shoulder injury means he is useless for sport and cannot be used as a leisure horse either. A breeder took him on in the hope of finding a private place for Linus, as she…

Mona Lisa | Horse

We found Mona Lisa and her daughter at a slaughter horse market in Maishofen, Salzburg. You can find markets like this everywhere, even in the middle of Munich. Michael Aufhauser became aware of them because the shy Mona Lisa was frantically trying to protect her little daughter Indra. We at Gut Aiderbichl know exactly how…

Grey November | Horse

We were presented with a terrible sight when we were called by the veterinary office to inspect an animal: 19 almost starved horses, without bedding or food and kept in desolate conditions. Among them was Grey November, affectionately known as Robby. The Gut Aiderbichl team and Managing Director Dieter Ehrengruber could not look away, as…

Molly | Horse

Diana Shaffner is originally from Bavaria and now lives with her husband in Texas. A few years ago, she learned about horses that were destined for slaughter due to extreme neglect and imminent transportation to Mexico. When she was in Munich, she decided to take a trip to Gut Aiderbichl in Henndorf. Back in the…

Halexa | Horse

Halexa, Hashima and Hosanna - the owner was at the end of his tether. A man had spent a lifetime with Haflinger mares and loved them more than anything. Now his health forced him to give up his three girls. We promised him that we would take in the three Haflinger mares and not separate…

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…

Vasco | Horse

Animals can grow very close to our hearts. Humans and horses have always worked very closely together. Vasco, a well-behaved vaulting horse, was struggling with back problems. Horses with back pain quickly fall into a relaxed posture. To prevent further damage from occurring as a result, therapy must be started quickly. However, Vasco should not…

Hansl | Horse

Christa Clarin, the widow of the late actor and animal lover Hans Clarin, could not look away when she learned of the fate of the three little foals she had come to know and love on her daily dog walks. When she learned that they were to be slaughtered, she could not stand idly by…

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…

Malouvier | Horse

When we found Malouvier, we felt like we had stepped back in time. The owner of the stately gelding was still turning the hay in the traditional way, with a draught horse and a wooden cart. Impressed and moved by the intimate relationship between farmer and horse, Michael Aufhauser struck up a conversation with the…
