Donkey Happy

Kronprinz Rudolf | Donkey

Because all animals are treated equally well at Gut Aiderbichl, pedigrees are unimportant. We do not attach any importance to breeding or breed, because we love all animals just as they are. But we have to make an exception for Crown Prince Rudolf. He is a representative of a donkey species that is on the…

Zimt | Donkey

Our mini donkeys Zimt, Zucker, Dinkel and Hafer come from a breed that had to reduce its stock in difficult times. They have found a loving home with us at Gut Aiderbichl Henndorf, where they are looked after with lots of care.

Winnetou | Donkey

It happens again and again that sanctuaries have to give up. There are many reasons for this, but the tragedy remains the same: The animals lose their homes. Winnetou also found himself in this desperate situation. It was with a heavy heart that the operators of the private sanctuary where Winnetou was housed had to…

Sunny | Donkey

Sunny was born on 07.10.2024 - under the protection of Gut Aiderbichl. We are very grateful that she is with us. Fortunately, she knows nothing of the danger she and her mother Simona were once in. In February 2024, we learned about a group of donkeys that were being kept in Italy in the most…

Hafer | 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 herd 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.

August | Donkey

An animal lover contacted us. She was close to tears when she told us her story. A few years ago, she had rescued two donkeys from the slaughterhouse and placed them with her parents-in-law. She lovingly looked after August and Pedro and did everything she could to ensure that they wanted for nothing. But over…

Schoko | Donkey

Schoko and Pico were rescued by animal lovers when they were on their way to the slaughterhouse. From then on, they were cared for with a lot of love and patience at a private sanctuary. However, as the costs continued to rise, but not the income, it became clear that the sanctuary would not be…

Felix | Donkey

A particularly committed animal rights activist had to give up her dream of owning her own sanctuary. She had been in dispute with her landlord for some time, who finally terminated her lease. Through a lot of hard work and a long search, she was able to find a new home for the majority of…

Lisa | Donkey

Friendships for life develop in times of need. This is what happened to the mare Weibi and the donkey Lisa. They met on the farm of an animal lover. Lisa was rescued by her after the owners had simply forgotten about her. Three days later, a cattle dealer placed Weibi with the animal lover. She…

Herr Fridolin | Donkey

This led to dramatic scenes and eventually even to Mr. Fridolin losing his place. In our Aiderbichler donkey family, Mr.…
