Simon is a gentle old soul who has been through more than any dog ever should, but you would never know it from the way he looks at you, his eyes full of quiet hope and kindness. This sweet senior boy has finally landed somewhere safe, and now he is ready for the best chapter yet: a forever home where he can rest easy, knowing he is truly loved.

Simon's past was rough, but his spirit is beautifully unbroken. He adores soft beds, calm voices, and slow strolls where he can sniff the world at his own pace. Once he trusts you (and it doesn't take long), he will lean in for gentle pets and reward you with the most heartfelt tail wags.

He is looking for a peaceful home where he can feel secure, nap in sunny spots, and simply be someone's beloved companion. After all he has endured, Simon deserves nothing less than a life filled with comfort, kindness, and love. If you have been waiting to open your heart to a dog who will be endlessly grateful for every small act of care, Simon is waiting for you.

Simon joined POMDR after the Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter reached out seeking placement for him with a senior focused rescue.
