Well, here's something we don't get to offer you very often a young male stray dog with good leash training who may have been someone's running companion: "Handsome, and all his big-headed handsomeness, is an amazing walker," one volunteer dog walker said of this good-looking young dude. "No pulling, very attentive to you, always looking up to confirm he's where you want him to be. He trotted on my left side everywhere I went."

Handsome did very well when staff observed him: friendly and clean in his cage, consistently reacted favorably to other dogs, including one-on-one, enjoyed petting, including willingly letting his feet and mouth be handled, showed no food aggression or object guarding. He did seem fearful of cats.

While Handsome shows interest in toys, he doesn't seem to know how to fetch: "You throw it, he runs to it, sniffs it, and...the end," a volunteer said. "He didn't put any toy in his mouth and bring it back. He just comes running back to be at your side." Handsome does have a few scars on his face and legs. But whatever caused them, he doesn't seem to hold any grudges.

"Such a sweet boy," another volunteer added. "He's very gentle and loves to give hugs and kisses."

My, my: Good-looking, athletic, attentive and loving, enjoys long walks...is this a dating profile or an adoption description? Come meet Handsome- it might be love at first sight!
