I'll start out by saying I just. loved. this. fic!!! I absolutely adore Severus and Ron together, and you wrote their dynamic so well! I can't believe how well you translated my prompt hint that Ron is trying to be a submissive in his own bumbling way. It made such sense for him to be brave enough to give this a go even when the process wasn't bringing him what he wanted (poseur Doms, not the treatment he wanted, not yet someone he could trust).
And Severus, with his possessiveness, *swoooons* And he still acts like the Potions Master we know, stern and disciplined, occasionally dismissive and scornful, but the way the Ron's training breaks them both down, reveals how Severus is caught in this developing trust and connection between them both, rang so true for me.
The whole "Pup" title was so appropriate for Ron, and for Severus to bestow upon him. It really fit the wanting to obey, to trust, to follow orders, but the streaks of stubbornness and mischief and self-doubt we know Ron to harbor.
The work scene! LOL, poor Harry, no idea what he'd left behind in that room, and going back to encounter Ron's flushed face and mused hair and swollen lips from the blow job! Ngshdjhal;jsdk;j, completely awesome and delicious!
I also really enjoyed how, though Ron disguised himself at the start, and picked such nondescript personae, Severus is really keen on Ron's actual looks -- his height, his hair, his freckles. And I know I've said this, but Ron is so Ron, with his readily apparent emotions and grins and sense of mischief and yearning to belong to someone.

Loved it to bits and bits and bits!!!
