The University of Veterinary Medicine in Vienna has been conducting animal experiments with ponies for many years, but also with other animals such as cattle, llamas and pigs. This has always been for the advancement of veterinary medicine and without the animal suffering known from other experiments. The research of recent years, in which seven…

Maxl | Horse

A farming family had been given little Maxl as a foal and lovingly raised him. But as he grew older, they began to despair of the mini-shetty. Maxl kept escaping from the farm and joining the other horses in the neighborhood. No fence, nothing could stop him. But then Maxl's owners lost patience. When he…

Lisa | Horse

Lisa, who is known among the Aiderbichler staff as a gourmet and a voracious eater, has already escaped a death transporter once. Back then, she was bought free by animal lovers and looked after. For 15 years, everything seemed to be fine. But when the animal friends' life situation suddenly changed dramatically, the 6 friends…

Baricello | Horse

The fact that you can die of a broken heart is a cruel reality for us. We have often seen little foals stop eating out of sheer grief. This was also the case with Baricello. All consolation, all cuddles and every kind word bounced off his unspeakable grief. At that time, we were at the…

Nano | Horse

Nano was only a few weeks old when it became clear that he did not meet the breeding expectations. His future fate seemed to be predetermined. The original Aiderbichler and horse expert Beatrice Bürchler-Keller stood up for Nano and other companions. She wanted to help them and spare them a trip on a death truck.…

Anna-Carina | Horse

Anna-Carina is a beautiful mare who was originally purchased from the cattle dealer Schillinger. Her story begins with a rescue operation in which she was saved from the slaughterhouse. Anna-Carina is not only a remarkable mare, but also a heroine who deserves a second chance. Most remarkably, she was pregnant, which makes her rescue all…

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…

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…

Winnetou 31 | Horse

When we found Winnetou, he already had quite an odyssey behind him. He had already been rescued from a slaughter transport to Italy. It was already clear at this point that he was no longer fit to be ridden. He was passed on to a family who promised not to make any demands on him…

Shirina | Horse

Very often we report on breeders and farmers who do not keep their animals well. But there is also the opposite - breeders who are aware of their responsibility and who try to find good places for their animals. One of these people contacted Aiderbichler animal rescuer Christian Kögl and told him about his problem…

Bert | Horse

The scene of Bert's rescue was the Munich horse market. Little Bert is particularly affectionate, but this was of no interest at the horse market. We bought Bert and many other horses and donkeys. Once we arrived at Gut Aiderbichl, we got to know and, above all, love Bert. One of Bert's peculiarities always makes…

Holly | 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…
