Welcome Moet & Chandon, plus a Frida update

As I mentioned last week, we have added a little more to our group of pets here at Rancho La Luz.  Last week we completed the purchase of two horses, Moet and Chandon.  Now you can probably appreciate that we do enjoy a little drink of the bubbly, but also Moet, which is Jo Ann's ride, is very bubbly and quick to canter.  Chandon is more of a love bunny, but is also a lot of fun to ride.

Here is Moet.

And here is Chandon,

While I am at it, here are two more, one of Moet and one of Chandon.

We are now in the process of building two new stables, a tack room and a place to store their alfalfa.  We had always planned on doing this, it is just that we ended up accelerating our plans to get the horses since the opportunity arose.

I also promised an update on Frida, our compo dog that we found two or so months ago.  She is doing wonderful now that we have been able to rebuild her immune system and get her better nourishment.  She had been covered with lice, maggots and fleas when we found her, but now she is doing great.  When we found her she weighed less than five pounds, but as of today she has grown to 18 pounds and as you can see below, she is very healthy and a lot of fun to have around.
