Senior Chihuahua and His Pillow Fort Go Viral

A senior Chihuahua named Geoff has a special way of making sure the Roomba vacuum doesn’t disturb his afternoon naps. As a senior dog, Geoff needs a lot of beauty sleep. Sometimes, he is so tired that he can’t make it to his bed and falls asleep in various locations around the house. So, to protect this goofy senior Chihuahua from the Roomba, his people built him a pillow fort.
