When not to use an adjective and not 'of'
"Fit as a butchers dog" is an expression used to explain that an individual is very well physically. Even though the original translation was to explain that it meant well fed.
It has nothing to do with how attractive a person is. This expression is very old and calling someone "fit" for being beautiful is a fairly new addition to English slang.
