Geese Police Return to Pittsburgh Park

Pittsburgh’s North Shore Riverfront Park is getting a furry new security detail: Border Collie “Geese Police” trained to deter geese from making the park their messy home. Deployed under a six-month contract worth up to $10,500, these canine officers will patrol two to four times daily, targeting the Great Lawn and surrounding areas to reduce goose droppings that ruin the vibe for runners, bikers, and boaters. With monthly reports tracking their success, the city hopes to make the park less appealing to geese — and more enjoyable for humans — with a potential two-year extension costing up to $19,550 annually.
