NOVEL NEXT Chapter 820
We prepared something for her to bite
“Speaking from Leo’s experience… A few months after they are born, their teeth regrow. Of course, this was Leo. I don’t know if fenrirs are similar… But it sure sounds like it’s the same thing. …It was a lot of trouble…”
“Wou…”
“Hahaha. Don’t worry. I’m not mad. It cannot be helped.”
“Teeth regrowing…”
As Leo was a rescue, I didn’t know her actual birthdate. But I had an idea, based on her size and rate of growth.
And then her teeth started to regrow shortly after that.
I remember wondering how I could get her to stop biting things… And then I did some research and found out the reason.
While it was necessary to ensure that she wouldn’t develop a habit, I had been quite relieved to find out it was a natural thing.
“Well, Sherry is young, so such things will happen. Her old teeth will come out and new ones will grow. Proof that she is getting older.”“So, I should just leave her alone then?”
“Yes, I don’t think you need to do anything…”
Though, Sherry was not a dog. Perhaps there was something that could be done. I could not say anything too confidently.
If Fen or Riruru were here, we could ask them. But they were not, and it would take time to go to the forest.
“Wuff. Wou… Wuff-wuff. Wou!”
“Huh. Is that so?”
“What did good Leo say?”
“She said that while it can be very irritating, it should be fine to leave it. The teeth will fall out on their own, and it’s not a big deal if you swallow… What?”
The last part was a bit surprising, and I hesitated at first. But I ended up telling Claire. Basically, it would come out the other end.
“Wuff. Wou-wou?”
“Indeed. She should be given something hard to chew, so she doesn’t chew something dangerous. Make something made of cloth?”
“Wou.”
“Cloth… I will prepare it right away.”
If it was wood, she might get splinters…and rocks and metal were even more dangerous.
Normally, a chew toy for dogs would be the best…but they did not have such things here.
Regardless, Ms. Gelda and Ms. Lyra went away in order to fetch some cloth.
They brought us some towels… I wanted something harder, but just tried folding them up.
“Hmm. This will probably fall apart easily…”
“Mr. Takumi. I have brought Sherry.”
“Kyau?”
“What is it?”
“What are you doing, papa?”
Claire came while carrying Sherry, and Tilura and Liza were with her. And so I told Claire to put Sherry down on the ground.
“Wuff. Wuff-wuff.”
“Kyau? Kyu-kyu.”
“Hmm. Maybe it was too soft…”
After being told by Leo, she had pressed the cloth down with her paws and begun to bite it.
However, the cloth was easily pierced by her fangs. And they soon ripped, in spite of being several layers.
Tilura and Liza looked impressed.
“That’s a fenrir for you. Well, what about this, Sherry?”
“Kyau! Kyuu-kyu!”
This time, I rolled up the towel so that it was like a soft ball. But perhaps it was a little big.
However, this time it did not rip, and she seemed to enjoy biting it.
Still…
“Even though these are basically her baby teeth, they sink in so easily…it’s already full of holes.”
“Kyuu?”
“No, we wanted to see if you would like it, Sherry. It’s fine.”
“Yes. Mr. Takumi wanted to make sure you had something to chew on.”
“Kyau.”
As Sherry suddenly looked apologetic, Claire and I patted her on the head reassuringly.
