Oso in the wilderness in the Gila National Forest, New Mexico, 2016
Oso is my good friend Troy’s dog that he adopted from a shelter several years ago. Oso is a mix between an American Bulldog and a St. Bernard. Here he is patiently waiting for us to finish packing up for the steep ascent back to camp. An ascent that he, of course, made look easy, much to our chagrin, as we lumbered up the slope.
