Freedom to Run Through the Fields

I am trying to find the right picture that expresses the freedom I have to run Bailey and Chloe through hills full of spear grass and foxtails.

 The "Outfox" headgear has been a solution to a problem we have here in spring and summer.

 I know of only three ways to deal with a problem:
confront it, avoid it, or ignore it.

 The first three years we would avoid going into places with foxtails. 

 We would only go to the beaches, deserts, or deep forests to let the dogs run free.

 Now we confront the problem with the right gear.

The open fields with wildflowers of hundreds of types being enjoyed on a great spring morning.

 

 

 

 

Ignoring the problem is never a good option.
