Willi and his buddy Benny were already in distress in 2005. They were not being kept well by their owners and were in a bad way. An Aiderbichler woman became aware of them and managed to rescue them from their predicament. From then on, she lovingly looked after Benny and Willi. They were to want for nothing. But when she fell ill herself and, despite all her efforts, realized that she could no longer manage to look after her three animals, she had to find a solution. During a visit to Gut Aiderbichl Deggendorf, she plucked up the courage and asked us for help. Together with his friend Benny and Tinker gelding Buddy, Willi was allowed to move into Gut Aiderbichl Deggendorf.
