Ptarmigan's Song of Hiawatha

The Chippewa Princess, or Princess Chippy

Chip came to live with us late in May, and she quickly made herself at home here with the other Podunk curlys.  Deke is her constant companion and playmate.  Tag, who is too dignified for all that puppy nonsense, hid all of his favorite toys upstairs.  Chip was dashing up the stairs in only a week, looting his stash and making off down the stairs otter fashion, sliding down the stairs on her belly with the prized toy in her mouth.

Chip finds a bumper in the grass

Look what I have found!  A bumper! Can I have it?

Chip gets acquainted with a decoy by the pond, Does it bite?

Nope, it didn't bite me; but maybe I can chew on it
