The beautiful trotter gelding Karino owes his life to an animal lover who decided not to look away but to help. At a "cattle yard", he witnessed a mare desperately fighting back as she was about to be loaded onto a death truck bound for Italy. He intervened. He could not bear to see the desperation of the horse, which he had never seen before. He bought the mare free and was suddenly a horse owner. Unsure what to do next, he contacted us. Esperanza, as we called the brave mare, moved into Gut Aiderbichl Henndorf and four months later she gave birth to little Karino.
