Description
Abandoned by his parents as a child and raised in a gambling den, Gyeon Heeseong. He does not hesitate to take on rough tasks for the sake of the older brother who accepted him into the group, but when he is turned into a puppy due to an injury from an attack, he is picked up by Yoon Chi-young. “What’s with this scruffy puppy?” ‘Let go… you bastard!’ Suddenly, Gyeon Heeseong becomes Yoon Chi-young’s puppy, known as the man-eating wolf. “The pheromones are almost undetectable. It’s just a puppy.” ‘Quack.’ However, even the doctor judges Heeseong as a mere puppy, so Heeseong decides to deceive Yoon Chi-young by pretending to be a puppy and then escape. But Yoon Chi-young is a lunatic who never lets the puppy out of his arms. “I even gave you a treat… Can’t you give me just one kiss?” ‘Sigh…’ Although Heeseong becomes the recipient of affection and care from Yoon Chi-young, whom he fears, their cohabitation is precarious. “Puppy… I don’t think I’ll eat you.” ‘You, you’re insane.’ The story of the cohabitation of a puppy who just wants to escape from the man-eating wolf, and the man-eating wolf who has lost his heart to such a puppy. ▶A Quick Taste “I’m sorry, okay? Please forgive me this once.” “……” “I’ll never leave your side again. I promise.” ‘Don’t try to act cute!’ If only he had left him alone, he would have cooled down on his own. But being coaxed with a handsome face, the puppy was utterly infuriated. Heeseong attacked Yoon Chi-young’s hand as soon as he saw it and barked fiercely. Woof! Woof! “What’s that? You like me so much? Want to go home quickly?” Yoon Chi-young, petting the puppy, asked Ji Yeong-bae, a subordinate of the canine tribe. Despite continuously being bitten by the puppy, he always thought romantically. And Ji Yeong-bae always responded honestly. “Yes, sir… He’s saying, ‘You bastard.’” “So damn cute…. Okay, let’s go home and be alone together.”

Don’t Mess with the Puppy! Review & Spoilers - Novel Translator
My Thoughts on Don’t Mess with the Puppy!
"Don't Mess with the Puppy!" is a novel I dove into with a mix of curiosity and trepidation, given its blend of fluffy romance and darker themes. Overall, I found it to be a heartwarming read with a unique charm, though not without a few minor shortcomings.
First Impressions
The premise immediately grabbed me: a seemingly innocent "puppy" MC navigating a dangerous world, finding solace and strength in a powerful, devoted ML. The cover might lead you to believe it's all sunshine and rainbows, but don't be fooled! This story has layers, exploring some pretty heavy backstories and morally grey areas. I was intrigued to see how the author would balance these contrasting elements.
What Works Well
The core of this novel lies in the relationship between Heeseong and Chiyoung. Their dynamic is simply captivating. The ML's unwavering devotion to the MC is a major highlight, with many praising how he's a "green flag" character who dotes on and respects his partner. I especially loved how they built a home and family together, overcoming their individual traumas. The character growth, particularly Heeseong's, was also well-executed.
The blend of fluff and darker elements is surprisingly effective. The story doesn't shy away from exploring betrayal and underworld politics, but it's all balanced with plenty of sweet and heartwarming moments. The author does a great job of depicting the beastman culture and habits, making the interactions between the characters feel unique and believable.
Areas of Concern
While I thoroughly enjoyed the novel, I did notice some areas where it could have been stronger. Several readers mentioned plot inconsistencies and a feeling that some storylines were left unresolved, especially regarding the dog clan and the wolf politics. The ending, while sweet, felt a bit rushed and didn't fully wrap up all the loose ends. Also, the translation seems to have some missing parts.

Despite some minor flaws, "Don't Mess with the Puppy!" is a delightful and engaging read. The strong character development, heartwarming romance, and unique world-building make it a standout in the yaoi genre. If you're looking for a story with a perfect blend of fluff, spice, and just a touch of darkness, I highly recommend giving this one a try. Just be prepared for a few unresolved plot threads along the way.
