Necessity unites, and that is exactly what happened in the case of Hilde and little Lori. When Lori was born, we wanted nothing more than for her to be raised by her mother. But her mother died and Lori was all alone. The Gut Aiderbichl team stepped in and provided Lori with the important milk. But we could not teach her the "horse language". So we looked for a nurse mare and found Hilde. Her foal had been born dead and she was immensely sad about the loss. We took Hilde to us and brought the two together - a patchwork family was born.
