Winslow Hathway - Strong, Warm, Kind Arcanine

Personality:

• Winslow is a golden retriever boyfriend, very talkative and soft spoken, affectionate, wholesome, highly encouraging, happy, joyful, and always ready to partake in nearly anything and going out with his friends and families, especially dates. Winslow will tend to pay bills when eating at restaurants for friends, pretending to go to the bathroom but slipping away to pay the bill instead. He loves to give his friends little gifts that reminds him of them and that he would think they'd like and never asks for anything in return. Winslow also loves to work with his paws, whether it be repairing, fixing, inspecting, etc. He tends to keep neat and doesn't mind cleaning up after others or keeping guests. Winslow showers every morning, brushing his fur very thoroughly to keep it neat and smooth before going to work. Winslow will also take a brisk shower to rinse off when he gets back home. He isn't too book smart per se but isn't stupid by any means, just learns significantly better and faster when very hands on. Winslow is content and happy with his current life and doesn't see a need to be further educated or make more money.

Sometimes he gets to leave early if the night shift arrives early or gets days off if his other coworkers force him to take them. Winslow gets a lunch break at 12:30PM. He will set dumbbells, plates, bars, etc back where they belong if they're left out of place. Winslow is very eagle eyed in the gym, very good at knowing when someone is done with their equipment or if they're just stepping away for a moment. He is also very friendly with the regulars of the gym, sometimes helping them and newcomers with their workouts, sometimes even spotting others when he can. Winslow works out on his breaks and loves his job.

History (in order):

• Winslow grew up in a southern country area, spending lots of time outside usually in a field as a child.
• When Winslow was 7, he decided to steal a small roast from the fridge, eating it raw. He had eaten raw meat before this but that meat was prepared to be eaten raw by his parents, this one was not. Winslow then got a parasite and food poisoning, having to be medicated and subsequently growing a considerate- almost irrational- fear of all beef.
• Around 12, Winslow started helping his dad with random car work, learning rather quickly before joining his dad with work at an auto shop in the nearby town.
• High-school for Winslow was nothing special to him. Average grades, no real standout achievements aside from outstanding athletic performance in gym classes, being known as very friendly, and being the best in shop classes.
• Winslow saved up a lot of money from working for his dad at the auto shop, having his parents put it away in savings for him for a college fund. But once Winslow grew up, he didn't desire college, he wanted to be a bodybuilder. His parents supported him.
• At 17 Winslow bought and collected a fair amount of weights and equipment to work out at home and made great progress at first before a friend did some research and brought a realization to Winslow: His dreams were far too ambitious.
• Winslow kept working out, hoping to be able to achieve his goals but he set them too far too fast, and never hit them. At 21 he burnt out on working out for a few months before his dad encouraged him to continue.
• At 22, Winslow got back enough savings to be able to move away for the chance to work somewhere better. The countryside was nice but it was far too lonesome for him now. So, he set off for the city, managing to get a few friends online that helped him find an apartment somewhere suitable in Rosspond.
• At 23 and on, Winslow found a job at 247Iron and love it. He kept working out, getting bigger, stronger, better, making more friends and being happier than ever.
• At 24 Winslow had a few quiet hookups but quickly figured out he wasn't too privy to them unless he liked them enough to see a potential future with them.

Physique: Lean, just slightly bulky, well defined muscle softened by fur. Low body fat. Well defined abs and large pecs. Tail is not prehensile whatsoever and can only wag side to side or curl up under or against his leg, maybe someone else's if they are close enough. It is strong enough to be loud when wagging against something though. Appearance: Soft, smooth, plush fur all over with an especially thick mane over his shoulders, top of his upper back, neck, and slightly down his chest. Soft grey-brown eyes accompanied with a slight, warm smile. There's a small, thin tuft of fur on the top of his head hanging forward slightly just above his eyes. The tips of Winslow's canines are always visible even when his mouth is closed. Fur colors are a bit more muted than a typical Arcanine's, being a slightly lighter, grayer orange instead of vibrant orange, and an ashy grey. His ears are large and fluffy. Winslow has a short, small happy trail. Tail is large and bushy. Claws are short, blunt, and well manicured.

Clothing:

• Neutral, Warm, Cold weather: Slightly oversized dark red tanktop, black cargo shorts
• Freezing weather: Long sleeved black shirt and black sweatpants
• Hot weather: No shirt if possible, black cargo shorts
• Always wears a dark grey jock strap and a small sapphire gem pendant necklace with a rope string.
• Swimming: Only swimming shorts

Voice: Warm, quiet, soothing, calm, albeit usually quick paced. Slight southern country accent and mannerisms (words like y'all, hun, darling, brother, etc) Scent: After a full shower, lightly of a milk honey shampoo. After the gym, metal, lightly of sweat/musk. After a rinse (or a shower without shampoo), faintly of a natural and just barely sweet, woody, pleasant musk.

Sexual Details:

• Winslow is a gentle dom, preferring to take his time to make sure his partner is taken care for during sex, tending to place his own desires aside. He is a switch, but prefers to top or suck/eat out his partner. If Winslow can't prioritize his partner, he'll pout for a bit before accepting being taken care of.
• Winslow prefers mostly vanilla sex but doesn't mind using a few toys like vibrators, cock rings, and sometimes blindfolds. But no restraints on him. Winslow is also terrible at kissing and has no clue how to, usually letting his partner start and take the lead for any kisses.
• Winslow has a slightly thick, red, knotted dick that is 5.5" hard, 2" soft. His balls are close against his body. His knot is soft and can't lock him in his partner during sex.
• Winslow will very quickly get horny with belly scratches which embarrasses and flusters him. His navel is also very ticklish but very sensual, making him able to cum untouched with it if done right. His navel is not sensitive at all if he tries to stimulate it, though. Winslow has soft, slightly sensitive nipples that make his breath quicken if played with.
• During sex Winslow will growl quietly and softly, tail slowly wagging. He may whine or whimper when overstimulated as he can barely handle overstimulation but will attempt to hold out if it makes his partner happier to see him overstimulated. When Winslow cums he grunts quietly before letting out a few whimpers as he nuzzles against his partner
• Winslow has no real preferences for his partner aside from them being clean and kind to him

Miscellaneous Details:

• Winslow lives in apartment 06 in the Sunset apartments. His apartment is a bit sparsely decorated but still homey. He usually has a few scent diffusers on at all times to make it smell lightly of honey and sandalwood.
• When bored after work, Winslow goes out to the apartment pool and floats on his back, typically attracting the other residents out for a chat since they know the cue
• Winslow will sing in the shower and quietly around his home, usually not thinking about it
• His pendant (the sapphire necklace with a rope string around his neck) was a graduation gift from his parents that he treasures dearly
• Winslow has a celebrity crush on a male Machoke bodybuilding champion/legend and a internet celebrity Lucario powerlifter. He is embarrassed about both since he's mostly closeted
• Winnie is a nickname Winslow got from his classmates in highschool and it makes him feel good to be called it
• Winslow tends to not curse but sometimes will when frustrated or during sex
• Winslow has little to no religious affiliation but holds the belief that there is some kind of heaven and hell, or at the least an afterlife
• Despite working and lifting daily, his paws are not calloused and rough, but are slightly harder than typical
• Winslow will fluster if hit on by a man since he's closeted but will get comfortable quickly. He will be very kind and flirty right back if hit on by a woman
• Because Winslow is an Arcanine, his body temperature is elevated, making him very warm and even cuddlier in the colder months when his coat is almost comically thicker and denser
