Doug Carleton has gone to the same park in his city for years now, and being the animal person he is, has made friends with all of the geese there. There are eight geese in total who live there, and Doug even named each one of them! They have learned to trust in him and are always happy to see him.

And when a new Gus was born, Doug named him Sam. Sam’s parents brought him to meet Doug one day, and the two got to know each other and hit it off right away! Now any time Doug comes to the park, Sam comes running first on those fat little legs to greet him!
What a unique and amazing friendship this man shares with these wild geese. It’s great to see that such a bond can exist, and it is a testament to the level of love possible in these animals.
