Many people underestimate the cost of keeping horses. The stabling fee alone is not enough. The vet, farrier, dentist, perhaps even special feed and much more are incurred by horse owners. The costs for the beautiful Avon were simply no longer affordable for his owner. When he contacted us, a new stable had just been completed at Gut Aiderbichl and we were able to agree. But every time we take in an animal, we also incur costs that we have to calculate carefully, because we have promised our animals that they will be allowed to stay forever and that nothing will ever happen to them again!
