Also called: Geese Police Handler, Canada Goose Management Technician
Uses trained border collies to chase Canada geese off golf courses, parks and corporate campuses without hurting them.
The handler drives a route to golf courses and office parks, letting a border collie herd geese off the grass and out of ponds. Repeated visits teach the geese the place is not safe to nest. Handlers also oil eggs under permit, track goose counts, and care for their dogs.
