Geese Are Nesting on Grounds
Spring is here, and that means some of our feathered friends are nesting on the grounds. While exploring, please be aware of geese, as they can be protective of their nests. For your safety, we advise all guests to walk at their own risk and give geese plenty of space. Thank you for helping us respect our wildlife! 🦆🌿
Moss the Goose Dog
Meet Moss, Ford House's Goose Dog Extraordinaire
Moss was born in 2016 and has been an integral part of Ford House for seven years. Moss was born in Athabasca, Alberta, Canada, and was trained by Lisa Wright (http://www.lisawright.ca/) before taking on his duties on the estate.
On any given day, you’ll see Moss chasing away the Canada geese, ensuring that our grounds are pristine for visitors.
Moss is a Border Collie, a breed known for being energetic, affectionate, and extremely smart. Border Collies are athletic, medium-sized herding dogs. Their coats come in various colors and patterns, though black and white are the most common. Their intelligence, athleticism, and trainability make them ideal for the work Moss does at Ford House.
Having a job to perform is important to a Border Collie’s happiness. They feel most fulfilled when working and are loyal and dedicated companions.
