A rather unexpected guest has found his way to the Stafford County Animal Shelter, and we need your help getting him home.
This one-year-old male goose was discovered waddling around Kellogg Mill Rd (22405), seemingly lost and without clear direction—just honks and vibes. Despite his confusion, he’s surprisingly laid-back for a goose and currently stays at the shelter while we search for his owner.
Details:
- Male, approximately 1 year old
- No ID, no collar—just a lot of personality
- Friendly (for a goose) but definitely seems like he belongs somewhere
If this honorable honker belongs to you—or if you know someone missing a feathered friend—please call out to Stafford County Animal Shelter as soon as possible.

Inspired by local physicians who were among the nation’s first to adopt the concierge medicine model, Northern Virginia is now a hub for its surging popularity. These leading physicians are redefining the patient experience with same-day appointments, direct availability, unhurried visits, and deeply personalized care:
After almost 40 years in practice, Manassas-based Internist John Cary, MD’s change to concierge medicine enabled focused attention for each individual, and the launch of his innovative diet program for those with type 2 diabetes. “The goal is to promote enough weight loss to reach an acceptable A1C of 6% with no medication,” he explains. “Achieving that can take several months of very close follow up. As I tell my patients, we are in this together.”
Jay Tyroler, MD considers his patients quite literally as family. “I believe there’s nothing more honorable than helping patients when they’re sick, or scared, or feeling vulnerable, and I care for them exactly as I would my loved ones.” Whether for a specialist referral, urgent health issue or ongoing follow up, “My patients know I’m always just a phone call away.”
