I am a nascent gardener, rescuer, and photographer, chronicling the journey of the dogs at Homeward Bound Golden Retriever Rescue and Sanctuary near Sacramento, CA - and the Memorial Garden we have devoted to them.

  1. What a beautiful place. You HB people are just wonderful. I was lucky to adopt Brando from you. What a wonderful, loving dog he was. Thank you all!
