Sissy | Horse

The losers at horse markets are almost always the animals, and they seem to know it. Because not every animal finds a responsible owner. Everything is new and unfamiliar and there is a slight nervousness in the air. Even the calmest of contemporaries can lose their nerve. Sissy, however, behaved completely differently. With her head…

Schameela | Horse

As part of the cooperation entered into with the Swiss Sandgrueb Foundation (Egg near Zurich) in 2019, Gut Aiderbichl assumed responsibility for the lifelong care of a healthy group of 15 Arabian mares. The Sandgrueb Foundation had taken over the stock of an Arabian breeder a few years previously because she had reached her limits…

Elli | Horse

Elli's life story is not a good one. The 17-year-old Hanoverian mare was taken from her owner by the veterinary office and handed over to Gut Aiderbichl by the veterinary office. Elli suffers from severe asthma, which we are now having treated by our specialists. We wish Elli a protected and loving life at Gut…

Fidelio | Horse

Anyone who gets to know the big black horse can vividly imagine that even hardened hooligans turn into tame lambs in his presence. During his time as a police horse with the Munich police rider squadron, Fidelio and his rider were on duty at soccer matches in front of the Allianz Arena, among other things.…

Pioneer | Horse

The beautiful Pioneer belongs to the Shire Horse breed. Originally used as draft horses, he and his friends were kept as friends and family members. Their happiness seemed perfect and the animals had a good life. But the little paradise was suddenly lost when old age brought the couple to their knees. It was no…

Gin | Horse

When we are asked by the authorities whether we can help with a confiscation, we always have to assume the worst case scenario. We have to expect to take on completely neglected animals - animals that no longer expect anything positive from humans. Their only purpose in life seemed to be to give birth to…

Halfmoon | Horse

A dedicated animal lover had been looking after her best friend Halfmoon for 10 years. She had rescued him from the slaughterhouse and wanted to give him a nice forever home. He had been through many rough hands and was also used internationally in harness racing. He was correspondingly ill and injured - physically and…

Roger | Horse

In 2012, Gut Aiderbichl rescued 14 goats from a circus whose animals had been confiscated. Among the goats was a black pony, "Roger", who was tied to a short rope in the middle of the goats. Once you know this spirited, bright pony, it is hard to imagine the torment Roger must have experienced in…

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…

Kessie | Horse

We often take in animals that were really loved, but where it was impossible for the owners to guarantee good care. Little Kessie felt the effects of this, as she was given all the love a cheeky little pony needs, but the conditions were anything but good. We became aware of the pony mare through…

David | Horse

David belongs to the breed of South German cold-blooded horses, which are characterized by their sociable nature. Like the Noriker, this breed has a rich history of work. Nowadays they are used as carriage horses, logging horses and the like. When our colleagues arrived at work, they noticed that something was wrong with Lucretia. She…

Samurai | Horse

When ponies become uninteresting, they often have to give way and end up at auction. It is not uncommon for them to embark on the last journey of their lives. But a small sanctuary was able to save Samurai's life. Everything seemed fine until the tide turned. And stories like this happen every day and…
