When we heard about Benny's story, it broke our hearts. His owner had died suddenly at Easter, leaving behind her well-behaved wallach Benny. The family, who could not take care of him, tried to find a good home for him. However, this turned out to be difficult, because Benny is ill. He suffers from EMS and needs very special care and attention. "His owner was a very special person, with a deep love and attachment to animals, which were always the centre of her life..." the deceased animal lover was described. She herself was also seriously ill and confined to a wheelchair. So their friendship had a very special level. Now she had passed away and Benny was left alone. The family knew that the animal friend was a great Aiderbichl fan and so they finally turned to us. Touched by the deep friendship between human and animal, we agreed to take Benny in.
