Chipper
May 2005 - March 21, 2006

On Tuesday, March 21, 2006, after ten happy months of life, Chipper,also known as Chippers and Chippereedoo, passed away.He is survived by his brother, Hucklebuck. During his short life, his favorite activities included eating, sleeping, fighting with his brother, spinning on his wheel, and running around on the floor while being licked by Adonis, his guard who watched him day and night. A couple of months ago, Chipper survived a terrible brother-fighting accident which left him with one eye, but his cheerful spirit remained until his death. He was always eager to awake from a daytime nap when somebody wanted to play with him or when he heard his food bowl being filled. He will be missed.

Though a longtime resident of Las Vegas,NV, Chipper had recently moved to Winston-Salem,NC. His final resting place will be in his backyard there, near the compost pile.
