One big toy!

Gossamer wrinkled her nose as she sniffed at the dead thing. "Ewwwww…." She reached out a paw and lightly tapped it. She wasn't quite sure what Kotori thought was so fascinating about a gross, smelly, dead thing. "Well, we could. But I'm not putting it in my mouth!" Suddenly, she got an idea. "Oh, oh, I know. I'll make a pointy stick, like a spear and we can stab the fish and drag it back that way." In a moment she went bounding off near the bushes, scouting high and low until she found a hazel bush that had long straight sticks that would make a perfect spear. And that wasn't all. She saw the plant with the small white flowers. "Ástaaaaa I found flowers!"

A moment later the giant fox was there, tail wagging lightly. "Good work, that's boneset. Gather some of that and I can help you with the hazel bush." The little pups didn't have the weight or the teeth to chew off a branch of hazel. The large fox moved to a dead limb and started chewing the slender stalk.
