Patrick heads for Henry, crouching on his knees and trading leashes with the volunteer. From David, that compliment is practically a winning announcement, so he gives his attention to Henry, the jack russell, and scrubs right behind his ears, watching as he burrows into Patrick's chest like the sweetest thing he's ever seen.
He keeps his smile tempered, though, not wanting to clearly favour this dog because it's adorable and calm and has a great name, but when he stands, Henry is in his arms as he reaches for the leash of another one to walk around a bit, his eyes on David the whole time, like he's just waiting for another opinion.
"I bet you could train him to fetch things for you, you know," he says, casual as you like, like it's no big deal.
