Patrick has a feeling that pretty much all of David's sweaters won't stand up to dog fur, but that's not something he intends to really mention so much as buy a bulk pack of lint rollers and subtly stick them around the house.
The ones he's with right now seem a bit yappy and hyperactive, while Henry seems to be sniffing around David's feet, going back into a good sit right after. "Is he pretty calm like that all the time? Henry?" he asks the volunteer.
"He's a very sweet dog," she confirms. "He's a little older, which is why a lot of people haven't given him as much of a chance. They tend to want younger dogs, and they worry about the vet bills."
Older means that he won't really have puppy energy, which is good, and there's a part of Patrick's logical brain that also wonders how long they'll be in Darrow, so maybe that's not bad. He hands both the leashes back to the volunteer, taking the one from David. "I like him," he says, nodding towards Henry. "Do you like him?"
