There are things David knows he isn't supposed to say in front of the volunteer, things that would probably result in them being unable to adopt, because the volunteer will think David hates dogs. Which isn't entirely true. It's not untrue either.
"I like that he isn't jumping all over. Like a puppy," David says, then clears his throat and looks at the volunteer very seriously.
"I might be described as some people as... fastidious. About certain things. Is Henry already trained to go to the bathroom outside?"
"Yes," the volunteer says, smiling, as if she already knows David is fastidious. "He's potty trained and he knows most basic commands. Sit, down, stay, release. He was a surrender, his owner passed away, so he's been well loved and very well trained."
