When the authorities found Max and his fellow sufferer, they were not doing well. The two horses had to live out their lives in a dark stable together with cattle. The manure and urine was up to their joints and they had never seen the sun, let alone a pasture where they could run and play. Fortunately, a confiscation could be brought about and Max and his friend Moritz found their way to Gut Aiderbichl. With lots of love and patience, we will help them find their way into a new life.

Leonidas | Horse

When Leonidas feels he is being watched, he likes to show off his beauty. Modesty doesn't seem to be his strong point, but what does it matter. He can count himself one of the lucky ones who were spared transportation to slaughter after he was able to perform in dressage and show jumping. He was…

Nico | Horse

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

Tiny | Horse

Tiny was born in 2000 in the stable tent of a traveling circus. He lived through the highs and lows of the family business and was sold to a dealer in February 2009 when the circus was once again in financial difficulties. He offered Tiny for sale at a horse market. A nine-year-old pony is…

Elegante | Horse

The Andalusian gelding Elegante had a wonderful home for many years with an animal lover who lovingly looked after Elegante.

Maxi | Horse

When the previous owner presented the 27-year-old Maxi to Gut Aiderbichl Ballermann Ranch in a state of complete distress, the ranch managers didn't think they were seeing things properly. The managers of the boarding stable, where he had previously been kept as the only Shetty in a herd of pensioners, had woven metal plates and…

Talizmán | Horse

The cheerful and carefree Talizmán experienced an odyssey at the beginning of his life that is hard to imagine. Born in Hungary, he was kept in undignified conditions. Filthy stables, hardly any food or care. An animal lover found him and pulled out all the stops to free him. She brought him to Germany with…

Happy | Horse

Happy - We bought her from the cattle dealer The 3-year-old German coldblood had been taken out of the breeding stable and given to the cattle dealer. The breeding stock was to be reduced and Happy was therefore to be slaughtered. But fate had other plans. She now lives at Gut Aiderbichl in France and…

Maxl | Horse

The authorities are increasingly turning to Gut Aiderbichl for help. This is because when animals are confiscated, it must also be clarified where they can be taken into so-called care. This was also the case with the ponies Maxl, Flori and Lucy, as well as the peacocks Avani, Ishani, Phoenix and Zaltana. We agreed that…

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.

Kathrin | Horse

We are grateful that mare Kathrin did not witness the horror that her mother Evelyn had to endure. Evelyn was kept together with 18 other Haflingers in a dark stable with manure up to the ceiling. But how could this happen? This question is always asked in such cases. The solution is stricter laws and…

Lena | Horse

Sometimes you could almost think it was a crime to be small: Lena was originally purchased as a riding pony for the children. When they became too big for Lena, the pony mare had to go. An animal lover found her and took her into her riding stable. When she had to give it up…

Martin | Horse

Our sunshine Martin almost never saw the light of day. His mother Martina was on a slaughter transport to Belgium in October 2007. There he would probably have simply been disposed of as an embryo. Animal rights activists stopped the transport as the conditions for the 21 horses were devastating. Thanks to the animal welfare…
