Walter | Goose

Walter belongs to a goose breed that is threatened with extinction, namely the Steinbach battling goose. Due to his advanced age (approx. 10 years), there were no more offspring and so the breeder asked us to take Walter and his partner Luise to Gut Aiderbichl. Their new forever home is now Gut Aiderbichl Carinthia.

It was supposed to be a perfectly normal afternoon. A long-time Aiderbichler set off outside to take her dog for a walk.

Maxime | Goose
