Horse Lore

Moritz | Horse

Time and again we experience how important it is to make provisions in life. Ultimately also for the animals. What to do with them if the animal owner is no longer able or perhaps no longer alive? Gut Aiderbichl animal insurance is there for such cases. The owner of Moritz and Max took advantage of…

Minka | Horse

Haflinger mare Minka lived in a small, private stable. This is also where she gave birth to her foal, little Santos. However, the owner of the horses looked after his animals more poorly than well. The authorities kept imposing conditions. But then, one day, the owner disappeared and simply left Minka and Santos to their…

Tamina | Horse

Seraphina (23 years old) and her friend Tamina (32 years old) lived for many years on the farm of a blind, animal-loving lady and her partner. Now they have separated and the owner of the two ponies has to move into an apartment. A place was urgently sought and found for Seraphina and Tamina: at…

Tessa | Horse

Many of our rescued animals owe their lives to someone who took a closer look. This miracle also happened to 2-month-old Tessa, who was born with a wry nose defect and found herself in a dealer's stable. An animal lover, who actually just wanted to buy hay, became aware of them and bought them both…

Novak | Horse

Had it not been for this one visit, Novak would not be alive today. Beatrice Bürchler-Keller visited her neighbor, who was a passionate Freiberger breeder. When she found out that Novak and three other foals did not meet breeding expectations, she was very worried about the good little horses. It was likely that they would…

Paula | Horse

When Annette Engelhardt, from the Gut Aiderbichl Ballermann Ranch, received a call from an animal lover, she could no longer forget the fate of the three mares. She contacted Gut Aiderbichl's Managing Director Dieter Ehrengruber and told him what the animal lover had told her. That three mares were up to their knees in mud…

Bounty | Horse

Christain Kögl, cattle rescuer from Gut Aiderbichl Moosfeldhof, contacted the administration. He was contacted by the official vet and asked to help. They had to confiscate a horse that had been kept alone in a box for years. The Arabian gelding appeared to be distressed and urgently needed help. Dieter Ehrengruber agreed immediately and so…

Tiberius | Horse

The South German Coldblood originated in the Alpine region. It is assumed that this breed began in Roman times. This breed was further bred and "refined" in Bavaria. This did not matter to Tiberius, as he had to present himself to a large crowd at the horse market in Rottenbuch at the age of 117…

Billy | Horse

Billy suffered a fate that affects so many ponies in Europe: they are bought for the children. After the initial euphoria has subsided, a certain indifference sets in until the children often lose interest completely. This was also the case with Billy and lasted over 15 years until the land on which they stood was…

Reno | Horse

An animal lover and long-time Aiderbichl resident turned to Gut Aiderbichl in despair. Years ago, she had fulfilled her dream of owning a horse, which she looked after with great passion and love. In the meantime, financial difficulties arose, but a friend helped her and supported her with the costs. But now the friend has…

Bella | Horse

The fact that the well-behaved mare Bella is still alive today is thanks to the police and animal welfare activists who stopped a slaughter transport in Lower Austria. The condition of the 21 horses in the truck was devastating and heartbreaking. Michal Aufhauser and Dieter Ehrengruber made their way to the scene because they were…

Ishta | Horse

The South German coldblood breed is very strong and it is not uncommon to find them harnessed to carriages at various parades in Bavaria. They probably have their origins in the Alpine region. The first records can be found in connection with the Romans and their conquests through Europe. The great importance of the South…
