Hope and Grace Return

By

Last year at this time we adopted out Hope and Grace to what we had believed would be their forever home. They were going to live in Malibu in a large paddock with a steady gelding, only a mile or so from the ocean. We were so happy to know that these girls were going to live out the rest of their lives together, safe and happy. Unfortunately, life does not always work out the way we had planned. Less than a month after we took them to their new home, the Malibu fire tore through the canyon, … [Read more...]

UPDATE: Hope and Grace

Hanaeleh rescued Hope and Grace from a neglect situation earlier this year, and spent several months rehabilitating them.

UPDATE: Hope and Grace Practice Real Estate

After our very exhausting workday, Jocelyn and Brandye groomed Hope and Grace and we … [Read more...]
