they make dog crates that blend in with normal furniture. elias should have one in his office for jon. hidden in plain sight. drape a long tablecloth or something over it to cover the door and jon could be curled up in there with his collar while elias has meetings and nobody would even know.

Ohh my god your MIND. It looks like a few normal boxes near Elias’ chair. Nothing odd about it. They don’t know Jon’s gagged and whining inside, humping a pillow and hoping nobody can hear him. They don’t know when he finally tires himself out and curls up on Elias’ coat to sleep, soothed by the sound of his owners voice. They don’t know Elias said he’d get rewarded if he didn’t cause a scene and Jon’s so so determined to be good. By the time Elias opens his crate, Jon’s sooo deep under. Looks at him with big, fuzzy eyes, barks softly and rolls over. Isn’t he so cute? Didn’t he do so good? He didn’t make any noise at all. He was so patient and well behaved, isn’t he proud??
