Maybe something a little tougher? Don't they make those rope toys or something? If it feels enough like fabric he shouldn't chewing on he might leave your jeans alone.
I bet the pet store would have something like that. Anything super tough that he can put his teeth on. Plus if it doesn't demolish easily he'll probably be too busy on that to go after any of your clothes.
Oh, Addy, I don't think that's true. Puppies just go through that whole phase. Once he's grown out of it he'll probably be... slightly less of a terror.
[ but it is a lot of responsibility to be saddled with if you weren't expecting it. ]

[ she absolutely will, even if she balances it with begging for help. she can multiple task being needy and sneaky. ]
i got him this little squeak toy but he doesn't want it
i think his teeth have a preference for denim
no subject
[ oh, that's lucky. ]

[ she knows the eyes and that's good enough for her. ]
rope toys
that's a good idea
i think i can manage rope toy
hopefully before he digs holes into the sofa next
[ it's fine, she's fine. she's conquered zombies, she can handle a dog. ]
maybe he just doesn't like me

I could bring some things by later after work?
no subject
that'd actually be super great
please come save me
i can order up some takeout too or something as my treat
i'd offer to cook you something but we both know that's a terrible idea
no subject
Wait, is this the part where you need to text me something in code so I know you're not being held hostage by a tiny puppy?
[ because addy, he's like less than half your size. ]
I do have a pretty strong stomach these days, but I appreciate you thinking of me.
no subject
hate to break it to you dana but — puppies can't read
[ shocker, she knows. ]
no subject
[ she's facepalming already, addy, she already knows how it sounds. ]
Wow, I never thought I'd see the big, bad Addison Carver bested by anything.
[ and now she's just messing with her. ]
no subject
[ maybe dana's joking, but — it's not totally impossible. ]
i'm not bested
i'm enduring a challenge that i'll inevitably conquer
eventually
i just need my fellow dogsitter in crime to join me
no subject
You have all my faith.
Oh, so this was just your way of roping me into the whole thing, huh?
[ she says it like she wouldn't have eventually caved and helped out regardless. ]
What kind of takeout are you planning on bribing me with?
no subject
[ you know you love her, dana ♡ ]
oh just the awesome usual
fried rice, extra dumplings, a thousand fortune cookies
the cheapest and most delicious kind
no subject
Okay, okay. You convinced me. But only because of the extra dumplings.
[ she says, pretending they both don't already know she was going to come over this whole time. ]
Do you think you need anything else from the pet store?
