I would let Geoff gain 100% confidence in you, his new care giver, he needs to trust that will keep him safe, two weeks for some dogs is not enough especially with all the places Geoff has lived in, in such a short period of time. You will know when Geoff has complete trust in you. When you see this then you can slowly have him pass by ppl and carry treats with you. Preferably just a single person across the street from you, if he carries on reassure him "it's ok" when he settles down give him a treat and praise him, tell him gooooood boy and pet him. Once he has over come seeing ppl from a distance, then you can work on passing ppl at a closer distance, always having treats with you, treat when he behaves.
