Guide Goose of the Day: Renata Kursa, a villager from Poland, says she was heartbroken after her dog Baks lost his sight in a recent accident.
But her four-year-old goose Buttons was more than happy to lend her eyes to Baks, leading him with her neck, or directing him with her honks.
[G]radually Buttons got him up on his feet and starting walking him around, says Kursa. Theyre inseparable now they even chase the postman together.

I hadn't seen him for years (I had been overseas) and I went to visit him. He told me to hop the fence
and go around the corner of his barn to check out his new tractor.
.
No new tractor, but the flock of geese spotted me about the same time I spotted them and chased me...
heads forward and wings flappin' and honks honkin'.
.
I'm pretty sure I didn't even TOUCH the fence on the way back over -- terrifying.
