In Salzburg, there has always been disagreement about the placement of animals that have been taken away. The story is now one chapter richer. Deputy Mayor Florian Kreibich (ÖVP) considers an agreement with Gut Aiderbichl to be over, but they just don't know anything about it ...

For years, animals taken from their owners by official vets have been shuttled back and forth between shelters. In the city, there has also been friction between the animal shelter and the city council on several occasions. Some politicians massively criticized the operators, who fought back.

In the past, the shelters in Hallein and Lochen had repeatedly reached their capacity limits and at times were out of the question. This was one of the reasons why Preuner personally presented Aiderbichl as a solution and granted a subsidy of 70,000 euros. This went towards infrastructure for the dogs and running costs. All in the belief that they had concluded an agreement for years to come...
