Wide Open

Wide Open could have meant landscapes, it could have meant apertures.  For us its a whole lot of things.

It is the sense of adventure that our two have; lying on their backs on the mat waiting for the other to jump on them and wrestle, it is running around the park like crazies chasing their frisbees and then trying to be sneaky and get to lie on our bed, it is wanting cuddles before bed and in the morning.tarasutherland-djangolix-bed It is the work that we put into creating polite dogs; It is the training and the reconditioning, it is the work that goes into managing Django and his fear issues, it is not listening to people that say he isn’t worth it and listening to those with experience who say that he is.

It is that moment when you walk in the door and two creatures are so happy that you are there. That moment makes every shitty thing that happened that day disappear.

It is all those times when there is a little bit of work to do; Lights to try, poses to try, more poses to try, peanut butter to be had.

For us, Wide Open is all of these things and more – adventure, new experiences, doing what is right for us, fun, love, work, family.  And we are all in this together – we are Team Lix.
