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…

Veneziano | Horse

Nowadays, the breeding goal of the South German cold blood is to obtain a horse that is as light-footed and versatile as possible. With their strong nerves and gentle nature, they are regarded as powerful all-rounders. Although they have lost their importance for humans as back and draught horses due to the development of cars…

Marcus | Horse

Marcus' story begins at the age of around 3 years in the waiting area of the slaughterhouse in Austin, Texas. As warmblood horses are rather rare in this area, an employee of the slaughterhouse became aware of the gelding. He informed his girlfriend, who was particularly interested in warmblood horses. The friend bought the horse…

Lilly | Horse

Pony Lilly was handed over to Gut Aiderbichl Deggendorf at the age of 27. She was accompanied by the 18-year-old donkey Fridolin. The animal husbandry was dissolved and the two were now looking for a new forever home. It's good that there are people who look and help, because what would have been the fate…

Sari | Horse

A couple lovingly cared for their beautiful Arabian mares for years. But now the work was becoming increasingly difficult and their financial resources no longer allowed them to care for the two horses. Having been loyal Aiderbichlers for years, they turned to Gut Aiderbichl and asked for help. Sari and Poldi are now Aiderbichlers and…

Fee | Horse

The breeding standards are very strict, not only for Haflingers and Norikers. Freiberger breeders are also always striving for the supposed perfection of the breed. Many foals are unable to meet these high standards and fall through the cracks. Many of them end up on a slaughter truck. An Aiderbichler became aware of Fee and…

Cindy | Horse

Schecky lived with Cindy and three other ponies with an animal-loving lady. But when she suddenly passed away, the ponies found themselves in free fall. Nobody wanted to take them on and so they suddenly found themselves on a transport to Italy for slaughter. Shortly before the transport reached the border, we were able to…

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…

Washington | Horse

Hanoverian Washington is a former show jumper. His career was brought to an end by a damaged fetlock, as this injury meant that Washington could no longer be ridden. Washington is nervous and reacts to changes in the weather with colic. His new girlfriend Fenia, a Mohrenkopf Noriker mare, has a good influence on her…

Jamie | Horse

It is thanks to Aiderbichler Christa Clarin that Jamie is still alive today. She became aware of the foal, who was only a few months old, when he was already at a dealer. Although ponies can easily reach the age of 40, Jamie's life should already have been over. Christa Clarin bought Jamie free and…

Amenca | Horse

The beautiful and loving Amenca did not have it easy. Her career as a sport horse and later as a broodmare was already clear. But when a deformity of the right front coffin bone developed, this dream was shattered and Amenca was neither rideable nor suitable for breeding. An animal lover campaigned hard for the…

Paloma | Horse

When pony mare Paloma gave birth to little Tessa, it must have come as a shock to her owners. The little foal had a very crooked nose. This is a hereditary disease called Wry Nose Defect. This is probably why Paloma and her foal were given to a dealer. But they were both lucky -…
