About Geoffrey

Meet Geoffrey! This charming 15-year-old, 11-pound scruffy terrier mix is ready to find a patient and loving home. Despite his senior status, he has a lot of love to offer. Once Geoffrey gets to know you, his affectionate and sweet nature shines through, and he enjoys being close to his people. Geoff can be anxious and takes his time to warm up, so patient introductions are key, especially with new faces or dogs. A few treats and gentle reassurance will have him revealing his lovable personality before long. This quiet, gentle soul prefers to relax next to you, enjoy cozy naps, and go on leisurely walks where he can take his time to explore. With some limited vision, he thrives best in a calm environment where he can navigate safely. If you’re in search of a delightful senior companion who just wants to snuggle and be by your side, Geoffrey might be your perfect match.
