Horse Snorre 2

Fordson | Horse

Fordson, Vigo and Bounty were confiscated by the veterinary office in Zurich (Switzerland) due to severe neglect and emaciation. confiscated together. Their condition was devastating. The veterinary office placed them in the care of Gut Aiderbichl Egg, where they were looked after from then on. Fortunately, the owner had signed a waiver. After a transitional…

Martin | 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. But for Martin, this venerable history of his breed probably played no role. He was offered for sale at the horse market in Rottach-Egern. As the breeding…

Momo | Horse

Bonsai, Mali and Momo - a call for help brought the little animal family to us. Around 17 years ago, a psychologist and psychotherapist had the great idea of taking in animals in need of care to stabilize young people who were difficult to educate. This is how she came to Bonsai, Mali and Momo,…

Obelix | Horse

When we saw him, he immediately reminded us of Obelix from the Asterix comics. Gentle and sweet as he presented himself to us, we couldn't think of a better name for him. Obelix was 133 days old when he and other members of his species arrived at Gut Aiderbichl. He had to present himself at…

Lady | Horse

Lady and Lani came from an animal welfare case and were sold to good owners. The mares were to be sold back to the original owner via straw men. Before this happened, Lady and Lani were able to become Aiderbichl animals and live at Gut Aiderbichl France.

Sissi | Horse

Sometimes everything has to happen very quickly. Like with mare Sissi from Carinthia. Her young owner did her best when she noticed that Sissi was lame and in pain. The vet who was called initially helped with painkillers and used all her experience. That morning, a decision was made that the owner found very difficult:…

Karah | 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 in completely neglected animals - animals that no longer expect anything positive from humans. Their only purpose in life seemed to be to give birth to…

Michelle | Horse

When we found Michelle at a horse slaughter market in the middle of Austria, she was only a few months old. She was snuggled up very close to her mother Remy. It's hard to imagine what would have happened if Michael Aufhauser hadn't found them. They would probably have found themselves on a slaughter transport…

Sternschnuppe | Horse

Gut Aiderbichl received a call in October 2007 that saved the lives of 21 Romanian slaughter horses. Animal rights activists had stopped the transport in Lower Austria because the animals had been transported under inhumane conditions and some of them were even injured. Michael Aufhauser and Dieter Ehrengruber immediately got into the car and drove…

Tina | Horse

The beautiful Haflinger mare Tina was rescued from the slaughterhouse by an animal lover. She had made every effort to look after her Tina, but ultimately came to the conclusion that she was unable to cope with Tina both financially and in terms of time. The animal lover turned to us in 2005 and asked…

Anton | Horse

We don't know much about Anton's background. We can only guess that he was a "loser" at the foal auctions. No one was interested in Anton and he was ultimately to pay for this with his life. We were able to prevent this and put Anton under our protection. When he arrived at our home,…

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…
